Don't forget to hit the like button! Read by Mark F. Smith The Time Machine by H. G. Wells (1866-1946) Surely the Time Traveler threw great dinner parties! His guests were treated to a once-in-forever trial of a miniature time machine - an exquisite miniature that acted so flawlessly as to appear to be stage magic. That his guests did not believe the explanation - the machine vanished into the mists of the future - was patent. Still, a couple of the more thoughtful had reservations about branding the demonstration an outright trickery. And what about the nearly-complete full-size Machine in the Traveler's laboratory? Confronted at the next party by the disheveled Traveler, who had apparently suffered privations and who displayed two curious flowers of no known type, the Narrator's wonderment increased. For the Traveler provided a perfectly arresting story to explain his condition - a surprising tale of a far future where humankind divides into a carefree above-ground race, the Eloi, and a mechanical subterranean race, the Morlocks. A tale in which it appears that the inheritors of the Earth inhabit it as cattle for the feeding of their underground cousins! Believe, or disbelieve? But perhaps the inventive genius of a man who can translate "thousands of millions of days" of time travel into an exact date should not be doubted! (Intro by Mark F. Smith) Total running time: 3:36:04 In addition to the reader, this audio book was produced by: Dedicated Proof-Listener: Hugh Gillis Meta-Coordinator/Cataloging: TriciaG Chapter 01 -- 00:21:27 Chapter 02 -- 00:13:33 Chapter 03 -- 00:13:56 Chapter 04 -- 00:26:04 Chapter 05 -- 00:43:33 Chapter 06 -- 00:13:49 Chapter 07 -- 00:16:18 Chapter 08 -- 00:16:28 Chapter 09 -- 00:16:34 Chapter 10 -- 00:07:00 Chapter 11 -- 00:12:40 Chapter 12 & Epilogue -- 00:14:37 This audio recording courtesy of Librivox.
