Great reading! Truly enjoy how you change your intonation so that the listener can tap into the story’s emotion. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Reminds me of those old time radio dramas and “the theater of the mind”. 👏🏾👏🏾 Appreciated!

So rare to see this late 18th century sci fi. I really enjoyed these. Interesting to see how much more focused on biology they were than modern sci fi.

Wells was ahead of his time; ie his story about the 'first' flight.. He wrote more than the classis War of the Worlds.

I enjoy your work and you narrate with excellent tone and affect. Would you consider a location that would render less of an “echo” for your reading? I am hoping you will find this feedback helpful.

A short story by ME.

A long time ago, there lived a man called Alan. Then he died.

Is there a purpose to the choice of colour switching for the words?

H G Wells Stories are Timeless and worth reading as Bedtime Stories to older Children instead of TV, or just for personal pleasure?
