Justly celebrated as a prophet, H.G. Wells was, first and foremost, a master story-teller whose narratives still hold the attention of thousands of readers year after year. Remarkably skillful at balancing imaginary situations with backgrounds and details that are almost scientifically specific, Wells holds - and deserves - the title, "Father of modern science fiction." The seven novels included (in this single volume in their complete and unabridged texts) are his finest achievements. Several of them have already attained reputations as classic stories, not only of their special genre but of English literature in general. All of them are rewarding entertainments.

Level 7 is the diary of Officer X-127, who is assigned to stand guard at the "Push Buttons," a machine devised to activate the atomic destruction of the enemy, in the country’s deepest bomb shelter. Four thousand feet underground, Level 7 has been built to withstand the most devastating attack and to be self-sufficient for five hundred years. Selected according to a psychological profile that assures their willingness to destroy all life on Earth, those who are sent down may never return. Originally published in 1959, and with over 400,000 copies sold, this powerful dystopian novel remains a horrific vision of where the nuclear arms race may lead, and is an affirmation of human life and love. Level 7 merits comparison to Huxley’s A Brave New World and Orwell’s 1984 and should be considered a must-read by all science fiction fans.
