    About this ebook

    "The Empire of the Ants" is a 1905 short story by H. G. Wells about the littleness of humanity and the tenuousness of the dominion "Homo sapiens" enjoys on Earth. A 1977 film, "Empire of the Ants", was loosely based on Wells's story.

    Herbert George Wells

    Herbert George Wells (meist abgekürzt H. G. Wells; * 21. September 1866 in Bromley; † 13. August 1946 in London) war ein englischer Schriftsteller und Pionier der Science-Fiction-Literatur. Wells, der auch Historiker und Soziologe war, schrieb u. a. Bücher mit Millionenauflage wie Die Geschichte unserer Welt. Er hatte seine größten Erfolge mit den beiden Science-Fiction-Romanen (von ihm selbst als „scientific romances“ bezeichnet) Der Krieg der Welten und Die Zeitmaschine. Wells ist in Deutschland vor allem für seine Science-Fiction-Bücher bekannt, hat aber auch zahlreiche realistische Romane verfasst, die im englischen Sprachraum nach wie vor populär sind.
