The Clockwork Man by E.V. Odle
3.0
Review of the Project Gutenberg edition.
This is a simple allegory with some comic elements. The Clockwork man arrives from the future, implicitly carrying a warning to us in the present about the dangers of allowing authoritarianism to rule our lives. Not really a lot of plot, but it would help to understand the rules of cricket. This book likely is an inspiration for a lot of modern science fiction, The Terminator being an obvious example.
