By H. G. WELLS

"Imagination—that is his master quality."—William Archer.

The Food
of the Gods,

and How it Came to Earth

12mo. $1.50

"A remarkably diverting fantasy, to the spell of which it is as easy as it is pleasant to yield."—New York Tribune.

"A strikingly good imaginative novel."—Philadelphia Press.

"This is a book well worth reading for those who like something that stimulates mentally as well as entertains."—Chicago Inter-Ocean.

"Mr. Wells never fails to see the romantic as well as mechanical implications of his imaginary changes in the fate of the world, and this is one of his most suggestive and satisfactory stories."—Congregationalist.

"It is apparent from 'The Food of the Gods' that Mr. Wells's powers of invention show no sign of relaxation. . . Best of all, however, it is an entertaining story and a far-seeing outlook toward the scientific possibilities of the future."—Boston Transcript.

"'The Food of the Gods,' like Mr. Wells's other books, proves that the inventor of the romance of science is always able to respond to any call made upon it, however complex. In the interest of its central idea, no less than in the careful working out of every part of the subject, 'The Food of the Gods' proves itself a notable and popular addition to the author's many successful novels."—Philadelphia Public Ledger.
