Drifting between the mystical and the humorous, ‘The Soul of a Bishop’ is a deeply personal story about a lost man trying to find his way in the world.

Teeming with fantastical images and family drama, this novel is ideal for fans of ´Under the Banner of Heaven´. H. G. Wells (1866-1946) was an English author and Noble Prize in Literature nominee, prolific across several genres, and celebrated as the "father of science fiction". His notable science fiction works include the blockbuster hit adaptation ‘The Time Machine’, ‘The Invisible Man’, ‘The War of the Worlds’, and ‘When the Sleeper Walks’. Wells remains a significant influence on the sci-fi genre today.
