Publisher's Synopsis
Christopher Priest is one of Britain's outstanding novelists. Earthlight are proud to present the first of two omnibuses, featuring his SF novels THE SPACE MACHINE and A DREAM OF WESSEX each of which shows a very different side of England.
THE SPACE MACHINE is both homage to H.G. Wells and wonderful imaginative fiction. It was praised by THE TIMES as 'compulsively readable...a mutation between THE TIME MACHINE and THE WAR OF THE WORLDS.' In A DREAM OF WESSEX, the author conjures up an alternative reality where his characters find both peace and fulfilment, until a disruptive force arrives.
