The World Set Free

di H. G. Wells (Autore)

Golden Quill Classics, 2025

He imagined atomic bombs decades before they became reality. The World Set Free (1914), by H. G. Wells, is a visionary science fiction novel that predicted the dawn of nuclear power and its shattering impact on civilization. The story explores a future where scientists unlock the destructive force of atomic energy. What begins as a triumph of human ingenuity quickly spirals into global catastrophe, as cities are devastated by unstoppable weapons of unprecedented power. Out of the ashes, humanity faces a choice: continue down the path of annihilation, or rebuild a world guided by peace and reason. Far more than a tale of destruction, Wells' novel is a meditation on science, responsibility, and the potential for both ruin and renewal. Written decades before the Manhattan Project, its uncanny accuracy makes it one of the most extraordinary works of speculative fiction ever created. A chilling yet hopeful vision, The World Set Free remains a timeless warning about the consequences of discovery without wisdom. ?? Click "Buy Now" and experience H. G. Wells' prophetic tale of atomic power and humanity's future.
