The Food Of The Gods (H.G. Wells) - Book Review

How would 19th century British folk handle a situation of their children growing to the size of 4 story buildings? If you have ever asked yourself this very specific question than 'The Food of The Gods and How It Came To Earth' by H.G. Wells is the perfect book for you. The book raises some interesting questions one of these being: are there inventions/discoveries that can or should be un-invented?I was very excited after reading the initial pages and the basic premise of the plot, but was let down as the book went on. Fiction writers have a difficult job of choosing where to take the story from the initial conception and I personally wanted to see it head in a different direction than where it did go. The book wasn't all bad though as it contained one of my new favourite fictional characters, that being Cossar the engineer. To learn more about him and why I liked him, listen on.Hope you enjoy, Kyrin out!If you would like to support the channel, you can grab yourself a copy of the book here! https://amzn.to/3huqbh3Connect with Mere Mortals:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meremortalspodcast/Support the show
