H.G.Wells (1866-1946) anses som den moderna science fiction-romanens skapare. Med romaner som Tidmaskinen, Världarnas krig, Doktor Moreaus ö och Den osynlige mannen blev Wells på 1890-talet en av världens mest lästa författare och Jules Vernes främste konkurrent som framtidsskildrare och teknikoptimist. Wells framtidsromaner har också blivit stora framgångar på vita duken.
