About this audiobook
Thirty Strange Stories by H. G. Wells. Thirty uniquely frightening and strange stories from the master of science fiction H. G. Well, the author of the Invisible Man and The War of the Worlds. A treasury from a master of science fiction contains thirty of his best short stories that combine his remarkable imagination with scientific knowledge to create fantastic adventures in unknown worlds. HG Wells was an incredibly prolific writer who contributed short stories in a variety of genres, including science fiction, dystopian fiction, and gothic horror. Originally published in 1897, Thirty Strange Stories contains tales like "The Triumphs of a Taxidermist", "Pollock and the Porroh Man", "The Story of the Late Mr. Elvesham", and "The Stolen Bacillus". "The Red Room" is the horrifying story of a man trapped in a haunted room, but it is never made clear what it is that haunts the room. Thirty Strange Stories offers an engaging collection of H. G. Wells' short fiction.
