A time traveler voyates half a million years into the future in an attempt to find two previous explorers who have failed to return. What he finds is a world as completely different from ours, as ours is different from when dinosaurs roamed the Earth. He encounters several new intelligent peoples whom he names: «The Amphibians,» «The Killers,» and «The Dwellers.»<P> <br/> THE AMPHIBIANS tied for 7th on the Arkham Survey of «Basic Science Fiction Titles» in 1949. It ranked 28th on the 1952 Astounding All-Time Poll for books. Although clearly influence by H.G. Wells' THE TIME MACHINE, it remains an intriguing and highly imaginative work.<P> <br/> Originally published in 1925. This edition takes its text from the revised 1951 edition.
