H.G.Wells

What about the time machine by H.G.Wells... The Morlocs were advanced subterranean humans raising those still living on the surface like cattle. Good stuff.

Perhaps, but the main story was not focused on what was going on under the ground, but above it. On the other side, the morlocks plays a major part in the plot. If I should pick one of Wells, First Men in the Moon would maybe have been a choice good as anyone.

Also, I think it would perhaps work a little better if the name of the authrs was replaced with a title(s), with the auther attached next to it. Something like this:

The Coming Race, by Edward Bulwer-Lytton

The Journey of Niels Klim to the World Underground, by Ludvig Holberg

Worms of the Earth, by Robert E. Howard

The Pellucidar series, by Edgar Rice Burroughs

The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath, by H. P. Lovecraft

The Seven Geases, by Clark Ashton Smith

And so on. Of course, some of the authors may have written more than one, and better, stories about the subject. 193.217.193.183 21:45, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

Tolkien

What about Middle-Earth in Tolkien's Lord of the Rings?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.68.140.213 (talk) 11:26, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

1970s children's book

Does anyone have any details of a children's book from the early 1970s about a nuclear-powered burrownig machine that was used to explore the earth? I think it might have had "geonauts" in the title and was translated from the French. Mike6828 (talk) 20:59, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
