“So fresh and imaginative a piece of work, that Mr. Wells, we begin to think, is the new man in fiction. Not only the ingenuity of the story, but the logic of it is such that we know no writer since the author of ‘Gulliver’s Travels’ who could show such amazing power in sustaining the illusion of truth under like conditions.”

Scotsman.

“The whole story is so delightfully coherent that, whether in the amusing or in the touching passages, it pleases always. So much that is clever, comical, tender, whimsical, and of healthy fancy.”
