About H.G. Wells
English writer
Herbert George Wells was an English writer. He worked across many genres and became best known for his science fiction novels. He wrote more than forty novels and many short stories, along with non-fiction on social commentary, politics, history, popular science, satire, biography, and autobiography. His work is still remembered above all for its influential science fiction, and he has sometimes been called the father of science fiction, though that title has also been applied to Jules Verne and Hugo Gernsback.
