When a Victorian scientist propels himself thousands of years into the future, he finds peace and beauty—and the Eloi, a gentle elfin species descended from man who fear the Morlocks, a sinister race living in deep tunnels beneath the earth. When the scientist’s time machine vanishes, it becomes clear he must search these tunnels if he is ever to return to his own era.
