"L'osteria volante" è un romanzo pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1914. La vicenda è ambientata in un'Inghilterra futura dove un'alleanza tra l'Islam e i grandi poteri economici porta all'introduzione di norme ispirate alla legge coranica, che, tra le altre cose, mettono fuori legge gli alcolici.

"The wonderful visit" fu una delle prime tre opere di Wells, pubblicata nel 1895, anno in cui pubblicò anche "La macchina del tempo". Nel racconto lungo si parla di un angelo, atterrato su questo mondo, e non riconosciuto nella sua qualità di visitatore angelico.
