The World Set Free - Herbert George Wells

'The power to destroy, was continually increasing. There was no increase whatever in the ability to escape'. H.G. Wells creates a hauntingly prophetic narrative of the upcoming atomic era in his acclaimed science-fiction novel 'The World Set Free'. In this nightmarish book, global leaders must create an atomic bomb that can annihilate society to save the world. In a highly prescient and unique manner, Wells wonders if peace can only be achieved by first having the ability to bring about total destruction. 'The World Set Free' is a novel as thrilling as it is terrifying as global warfare threatens to end civilisation completely. A highly influential novel that remains relevant in modern times, 'The World Set Free' is one of Wells' best and should be read by anyone interested in warfare.
