'The Invisible Man' is one of H.G. Wells' most celebrated and widely read novels. The story revolves around Griffin, a scientist who discovers the serum of invisibility that sends his whole life into chaos. The invisible man embarks on a 'reign of terror' across England from burglary to assault and murder, all while being pursued by the police. Wells masterfully blends the terrifying and the humorous in this engrossing story as mischief quickly turns to mayhem. 'The Invisible Man' is as poignant as it is entertaining as Wells' acclaimed social critique questions whether unlimited power creates evil. Each reader can take a different meaning from 'The Invisible Man' which is one of the reasons it remains relevant to this day and was adapted into a movie starring Elisabeth Moss in 2020. This captivating and thought-provoking novel should be read by fans of Ray Bradbury and George Orwell.-
