Brilliant, an intriguing story and excellent ending. The tale of a Time Traveller having invited several men of various influential positions to his house to tell them about his adventures into the future.
A surprisingly easy read about issues of classism that remain true to this day, highlighting how a rich man would be more likely to believe the future to be a human utopia so of course he'd come to the future unprepared for the dangers.
The Morlocks were written as convincingly terrifying and I understand why the Morlocks persist in pop culture when classism remains prevalent.
