Odhams Press Limited Edition of H.G. Wells' The Invisible Man, The Secret Places of the Heart and God the Invisible King.

The Odhams Press Limited edition bringing together The Invisible Man (1897), The Secret Places of the Heart (1922), and God the Invisible King (1917) offers a compelling cross-section of H. G. Wells’s literary and philosophical range. The Invisible Man stands as one of his most enduring scientific romances, exploring the dangers of unchecked ambition through the story of a scientist who discovers the power of invisibility with disastrous moral consequences. In contrast, The Secret Places of the Heart turns inward, presenting a psychological novel that examines emotional life, relationships, and the search for personal meaning in the modern world. God the Invisible King departs further into philosophical territory, articulating Wells’s vision of a modern, personal religion grounded in ethical idealism rather than traditional doctrine. Together, these works illustrate Wells’s ability to move fluidly between speculative fiction, psychological inquiry, and spiritual reflection, revealing the breadth of his intellectual and creative ambitions.
