The Time Machine

Into this world comes the Time Traveler--destined to become an alien on his own planet. A Tor Classic. Unabridged.

The time? 802,701 A.D.
The place? An Earth stranger than you can imagine.
The people? A pretty, childlike race, the Eloi-and their distant cousins, the Morlocks: disgusting, hairy creatures who live in caves and feed on the flesh of-what?
Enter the Time Traveller, who has hurtled almost a million years into the future. After the Morlocks steal his machine he may be trapped there...and at their mercy.
