A classic, I loved watching the to series as a kid, used to wish I could be the invisible man, most kids did at the time it was on the TV.

I saw this in my local library and picked it up, I returned it fairly quick as it’s only a short read so is more like a novella rather than a full size paperback.

Pretty interesting and engaging read, with a twist in the Epilogue! Don't miss it. 😊
To be honest, t's a pretty cool science fiction written in the late 1800s! Worth reading.

Not nearly as good as I thought it would be.
