Media Reviews
Accessible to readers interested either in the roots of science fiction/fantasy or in literary biography, but scholarly enough for literature students as well. -- Library Journal
With access to heretofore-unpublished letters and a singular grasp of Wells' genius, moxie, and failings, Sherborne is the first to portray the protean, scandalous, world-changing writer in full. -- Booklist
