The World Set Free

In 1914, H. G. Wells wrote about a world consumed by atomic fire. It wasn't fiction—it was prophecy.

The World Set Free is a startlingly relevant novel that documents a future global conflict ignited by the invention of ceaseless, chain-reacting atomic bombs (coined "atom bombs" by Wells himself). H. G. Wells, the greatest futurist of his time, forces you to confront the terrifying destructive power of science unleashed. But the novel is not just a tale of war. After the devastation, humanity rises from the ashes, establishing a new, enlightened World Government and achieving a true utopian society.

This novel is a powerful blend of military science fiction, philosophical debate, and hopeful social engineering. It is one of the most historically significant pieces of speculative fiction ever written, influencing scientists like Leo Szilard in the development of real atomic weaponry.
