Having rediscovered that Wells is a fantastic writer, I queued him up again pretty quickly. Bless you nameless myriads at Project Gutenberg and similar, for making this and other public domain books free and instantly available!So, what happens if a sociopath manages the trick of invisibility? Well,...
The part that I found the most interesting was his "descent into madness". It is impossible to tell how moral he was (or wasn't) before he became invisible, but he lost his morals very quickly after he became invisible: robbing people and not caring who got hurt as long as he got what he wanted.I ha...
I had to read this one for school last month and I literally fell asleep trying to finish it. I liked the overall idea of invisibility, what it gets and takes from you. But most of the actual scenes were boring. Maybe not my cup of tea, or whatever you want to call it.
The Invisible Man, by H.G. Wells **** This was the third book in a row that I read by Mr. Wells. In reading it, something finally became clear that bothered me all through “The Time Machine” and “The War of the Worlds”, but that I could not put my finger on at the time. It is this: in these books ...

I really enjoyed reading this book... The story runs along an edge of horror with an elegant humorous touch to it. To Mr. Wells - did you really want your readers to believe that an invisible man threatens to raise hell?? Only worked as far as to amuse me. Try harder next time.Overall, I liked the b...
This book was far more gothic in its tone than I had expected. Actually it is a bit of a haunting horror story as well as it is a science fiction novel. And I quite liked that. I love when authors surprise you and combine multiple genres in their own unique way.Even though this book above all has a ...
I do think that calling the invisible man by the name "The Invisible Man" gets a little annoying after a while. The Invisible Man has a really funny name, Griffin, that is. He is a scientist who found a way to make things become invisible, by chaging the body's index of refraction so it doesn't refl...
I might be the only human who didn't know (other than what the title gives away) anything about this book. I've also avoided all the movies as I assumed they would be rather silly.What a surprise the book was! (I have to stop saying this about H.G. Wells.) It was much better than I thought it would ...
With great power comes great responsibility, words that Griffin cannot live by in this case. Having successfully discovered the secret to invisibility, using light refraction, Griffin is initially delighted by his discovery which he imagines is going to give him the key to power and access in the ...
