The Time Machine

by H.G. Wells

For more than a hundred years, science fiction writers around the world have captured our imaginations with speculations about journeys into the past or future.    Countless novels, short stories, movies and TV shows have used or adapted the theme of time travel.

However, all of them owe a debt to Herbert George Wells.  This, his first major novel, published in 1895, was the origin of the very concept of time travel.  It is considered by many to be one of the greatest science fiction novels of all time.

In this story, the Time Traveller spins forward from late 19th century London to the year 802,701 where two rival species of human descendants co-exist in tension.  The Eloi live in an apparent paradise, although constantly fearful of their noctural subterranean predators, the Morlocks.

Now you can have this incomparable story read to you. This audio version is completely faithful to the H.G. Wells novel.

About the narrators:
The Time Machine is the first of my audio books to feature a co-narrator. 

Most of the story (Chapters 3 to 11) is narrated in the first person by The Time Traveller, played by myself, Shane Sody.  I am a former award-winning radio host, now dedicated to producing quality narrations of the greatest stories ever told, at the best possible value prices.

However, there is another character, the Narrator, who sets the scene in Chapters 1 and 2, and returns to conclude the narrative in Chapter 12 and the Epilogue.  The Narrator is played by  Victor Sody, a student who enjoys dramatic performance, ice hockey, basketball, music and computer games.

What is an MP3 CD?

MP3's can save you money!    MP3's are simply a different, more efficient way of recording audio.
Normal audio CD's use "WAV" files.

WAV files take up large amounts of digital space, so a normal audio CD can contain only a maximum of 80 minutes recording.  MP3's of similar quality use only about one-tenth as much digital space
so a CD of MP3 recordings can be ten times as long as a normal audio CD, perhaps longer.

MP3 CD's will play in computers, and in many (but not all) recently-made CD or DVD players.
If in doubt, check the manual or the product specifications for your CD/DVD player.  If you aren't sure, it's safer to buy standard audio CDs.

You can buy this same recording on three standard audio CDs, from my eBay store.
