Reviews
AN INTERESTING PREMISE
Avid Listener
HGW put more believeable action in this short effort than in most of his longer ones. Probably, if his rantings and ravings about socialism were deleted from his so-called major works, the resulting story would be about this length. I especially enjoyed the conversations of the cave bears and of the horses.
Good read.

Very enjoyable. Mr. Christopher has a good, strong voice, but the story was a little hard to follow for lack of inflection. Other than that, great read.
Tom Nicholson
An excellent and original story. It was believable and made a lot of sense. The reader had no feeling in his voice but I thank him anyway for reading it.
Good Short Story By H.G. Wells
A LibriVox Listener
Not one of H.G. Wells Best Books, But still a Great Read. It's fun to read with lost of good detail.

I had not heard of this novel by HG Wells before so it was a lovely surprise listen on LibriVox. Well read by a single narrator. Short but I think very accurate in a way only Wells could achieve.
Poor !!!

Better, but still pulp trash with no real plot that could have been written better by it’s own prehistoric characters !?!

I found it much more enjoyable than other books by this author, it was short and very entertaining. Definitely worth a read.
