Short-short summary of the time machine


            Short-Short Summary of The Time Machine.
            
             This book starts with an unnamed character that we call the time traveler inventing an amazing machine that can stand stationary yet still move (through time). After the machine is invented he chooses a select group of friends and scientists to show a working model of this amazing machine, and it disappears before their very eyes, they pass it off as a cheap magic trick and leave. Later, the traveler decides to try it himself. He slides the lever forward and starts moving, he moves forward only a few seconds in his time, but when he stops, the whole day had passed. He starts pushing the lever more now and finally stops in the 1900's where he only had time to talk and look around for no more than five minutes until he finds out that a huge war is going on and a bomb hits and he is trapped in volcanic rock he has no choice but to go ahead into the future until the rock erodes. When he finally sees the light of day, he sees himself in a beautiful garden. Soon he meets people that call themselves the Eloi. These strange people do not even know what a book is and they seem to be "blissfully unaware". Later he returns to where he left his machine ready to go back out of rage that many men had died for causes and these people do not honor them or even remember them. When he reaches the place his time machine is gone and there is a huge mysterious building where he left it, the home of the moorlocks. Soon after he finds some Eloi going into the sphinx like building, the moorlocks are eating them. He penetrated the moorlock's fortress by going in through a ventilation whole, battled them with some help from his friends the Eloi, got his time machine back and returned. When he got back no one believed his story so he decided to return to the future, but he never came back. And of course you have to ask yourself the eternal question, what happened to him? I loved this book and rate it a ten.
