The Food of the Gods,

and How it Came to Earth

12mo. $1.50

"A remarkably diverting fantasy, to the spell of which it is as easy as it is pleasant to yield."—New York Tribune.

"A strikingly good imaginative novel."—Philadelphia Press.

"This is a book well worth reading for those who like something that stimulates mentally as well as entertains."—Chicago Inter-Ocean.

"Mr. Wells never fails to see the romantic as well as mechanical implications of his imaginary changes in the fate of the world, and this is one of his most suggestive and satisfactory stories."—Congregationalist.

"It is apparent from 'The Food of the Gods' that Mr. Wells's powers of invention show no sign of relaxation.... Best of all, however, it is an entertaining story and a far-seeing outlook toward the scientific possibilities of the future."—Boston Transcript.

"'The Food of the Gods,' like Mr. Wells's other books, proves that the inventor of the romance of science is always able to respond to any call made upon it, however complex. In the interest of its central idea, no less than in the careful working out of every part of the subject, 'The Food of the Gods' proves itself a notable and popular addition to the author's many successful novels."—Philadelphia Public Ledger.

Twelve Stories and a Dream

12mo. $1.50

"It is distinctly into another world of fancy and humor that the reader steps when he turns the title-page of 'Twelve Stories and a Dream' and finds himself held by the spell of Mr. Wells's wonderful imagination.... Each tale shows Mr. Wells in a mood that is wholly his own, and they each give expression to a diverse fancy that displays exceptional literary skill and ingenuity."—Boston Transcript.

"Mr. Wells's technique is admirable, and one scarcely recalls a better-handled absurdity than 'The Truth About Pyecraft.'"—Life.

"All are written with an effectiveness and skill that are beyond criticism."—New York Times Review.

"Each of these stories is unique and thoroughly enjoyable."—Boston Herald.

Mankind in the Making

12mo. $1.50 Net (postage, 13 cents)

"The development of this interesting theory in detail must be left to the reader, who may anticipate a lively succession of sensations, some assenting and some dissenting, as he reads how mankind is to be made over.... Mr. Wells carries his readers with him and does not allow the least flagging of interest."—Outlook.

"He shows a wide knowledge of facts and an admirable temper from first to last ... his book is exceedingly interesting and stimulating."—Baltimore Sun.

"Mr. Wells's discussions of vital themes are suggestive, original, and plain spoken, and seamed with a racy vigor of style."—Boston Herald.

"The first tribute this book draws from us is one of sincere respect.... Mr. Wells's duty as a thinker and a writer lay in the producing of this brilliant revolutionary book."—London Daily News.

"He has an acute eye for prevailing weaknesses and absurdities ... an admirable knack of showing the absurd side of cant and pedantry."—New York Evening Sun.

"Contains a good deal of plain truth and many suggestions worthy of consideration."—Boston Transcript.

"Mr. Wells's masterpiece."—Review of Reviews.

A Modern Utopia

ILLUSTRATED BY E. J. SULLIVAN

12mo. $1.50 net. Postage, 12 cents

"This, the last of Mr. Wells's speculations regarding the future of the human race, will take its place at the head of the long list of works of its class, beginning with Plato's 'Republic.'"—Evening Mail.

"There has been no work of this importance published in the last thirty years, and it is possible and permissible to hope that some ideas sketched in it will fructify in the future."—London AthenÆum.

"Quite the most fascinating, and also most rich in suggestion, will be found this latest of Mr. Wells's anticipatory writings."—New York Globe.

"Mr. Wells's 'Utopia' is far the most interesting, imaginative, and possible of all the Utopias written since the inventions and discoveries of science began to color our conceptions of the future."—The London Times Literary Supplement.

"Mr. Wells has the gift of making his philosophical, or rather sociological, speculations of absorbing interest to the general reader. His literary imagination, which was born in him, works on the positive, scientific education to which his mind was subjected at its most receptive period, and the rare combination gives to his writings a peculiar distinction."—The Academy.
