A Glimpse of the Sinless Star, and The World of the Crystal Cities

George Griffith, a British science fiction writer and explorer of the late Victorian and Edwardian era, is known for his imaginative tales that often appeared in popular magazines before being published as novels. His works, while lacking scientific precision and literary finesse, are celebrated for their energetic storytelling. Despite his popularity in the UK, his utopian socialist views hindered his success in the US. His most notable work, The Angel of the Revolution: A Tale of the Coming Terror, exemplifies his unique blend of adventure and social commentary.
