H. G. Wells examines the origins of the Earth, and the development of life upon the planet, as it was understood in his era, and then explores the history of human civilization from its earliest beginnings, through the various empires of world history, up to the aftermath of the First World War, and the League of Nations.

For more than 30 years, H. G. Nelson has been finding the poetry in the punt and humour during half-time. Now, he turns his keen eye for facts and folly to the illustrious history of our great sporting nation. In his trademark fast and furious style, H. G. dives deep into the moments that have truly made us who we are. He reminds us of our leaders' great sporting triumphs, from Harold Holt's swimming to John Howard's bowling, rewrites the record on legends such as 'Aussie Joe' Bugner and Jack Brabham; and explains why Australia's reality TV is the best in the world.

H.G. Wells is best known for his science fiction, but some of his greatest works were in other genres. "The Passionate Friends" is a love story. It also is a story about dreams, despair, jealousy, sex, the struggle against social convention, the future of civilization, and much much more. It is written by a father to his son, "not indeed to the child you are now, but to the man you are going to be." He writes it so that one day, perhaps when he is dead, his grown son can read it and rediscover him as a friend and equal.

Burdizzo Book's Matty-Bob and Em invited some of their favourite indie authors to write stories inspired by their most beloved songs. The result is The Burdizzo Mix-Tape Vol.1, their most diverse anthology yet. These are tunes that resonate from the beach to the mountains, from rain dogs to spirits in the sky, from Old Ones to cold ones. Be it multi-dimensional romance across space and time, Cold War sexual paranoia, campfire cowboys, gypsy caravans, or demented disco balls, there is a song for everyone within these stories.

Es beginnt scheinbar harmlos: Menschen der Erde ändern plötzlich ihren Charakter, viele widmen sich nur noch ihren Hobbys und lassen ihre Arbeit einfach liegen. Andere, bisher schlaff, stürzen sich mit Feuereifer hinein. Das ist die erste Phase der sogenannten Psychosomatischen Abstraktdeformation (PAD), einer Seuche, die von der MARCO POLO aus dem Paralleluniversum eingeschleust wurde.

"Much attention has been paid to the "scientific romance" novels of H. G. Wells, a founder of modern science fiction and one of the genre's greatest writers. In comparison, little attention has been given by critics to his works of fantasy, which in the opinion of many, are just as artistic and worthy of study. This work takes a critical look at Wells' little known fantasy "The Sea Lady": A Tissue of Moonshine, which is "a parable of dark foreboding that unveils the nothingness of utopian dreams" and foreshadows Franz Kafka's dark fables of the totalitarian age.

In "The Island of Dr. Moreau", a shipwrecked gentleman named Edward Prendick, stranded on a Pacific island lorded over by the notorious Dr. Moreau, confronts dark secrets, strange creatures, and a reason to run for his life. While this riveting tale was intended to be a commentary on evolution, divine creation, and the tension between human nature and culture, modern readers familiar with genetic engineering will marvel at Wells prediction of the ethical issues raised by producing “smarter” human beings or bringing back extinct species.

Young, impoverished and ambitious, science student Mr Lewisham is locked in a struggle to further himself through academic achievement. But when his former sweetheart, Ethel Henderson, re-enters his life his strictly regimented existence is thrown into chaos by the resurgence of old passion.

He aquí algunos de los secretos de la taxidermia. Me los contó un taxidermista en estado de euforia, entre el primero y el cuarto whisky, cuando se ha dejado de ser cauteloso y todavía no se está borracho. Estábamos sentados en su guarida, exactamente en la biblioteca, que era a la vez sala de estar y comedor. Una cortina de cuentas la separaba, por lo que al sentido de la vista se refiere, del maloliente rincón donde ejercía su oficio.

El robo de un bacilo capaz de exterminar a gran parte de la población, un huevo de cristal que pone en comunicación dos mundos distantes, un taxidermista que plantea la momificación humana para paliar la desdicha de la muerte, un salvaje que ve en una dinamo un dios a quien ofrecer sacrificios.

Hablando de precios de aves, he visto un avestruz que costó trescientas libras —dijo el taxidermista, recordando un viaje de su juventud—. ¡Trescientas libras! Me miró por encima de las gafas. Otro en cambio no lo querían ni por cuatro libras. No, no se trataba de nada extraordinario. Eran avestruces vulgares y corrientes. Algo descoloridas además a causa de la dieta. Y no había tampoco ninguna restricción especial de la demanda. Cualquiera hubiera pensado que cinco avestruces comprados a un indio habrían salido baratos.
