Herbert George Wells (1866-1946) was one of the most popular British writers of all time. Prolific in many genres, he wrote more than fifty novels and dozens of short stories. His non-fiction output included works of social commentary, politics, history, popular science, satire and biography, but is now best remembered for his Science Fiction novels and has been called the “Father of Science Fiction”. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature four times.
A great initiate and scholar of Esotericism and Occultism, and a member of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, in addition to his fame as a writer, Wells was prominent in his lifetime as a forward-looking, even prophetic social critic who devoted his literary talents to the development of a progressive vision on a global scale. A futurist, he wrote a number of utopian works and foresaw the advent of aircraft, tanks, space travel, nuclear weapons and satellite television. His Science Fiction imagined time travel, alien invasion, invisibility, and biological engineering.
The Crystal Egg is a science fiction short story written by Herbert George Wells in 1897. The story tells of a shop owner, named Mr. Cave, who finds a strange crystal egg that serves as a window into the planet Mars.
