About this listen

Herbert George Wells (1866-1946) was a prolific English writer of science fiction stories and novels and is frequently credited as being the father of science fiction.

"The Empire of the Ants" is a disturbing tale about a new species of giant ants in South America which have evolved to use tools and weapons, wear clothes, communicate and organize themselves as a deadly fighting machine.

And their chosen enemy is mankind....

The Idea was Good.

The idea was a good one and the narration was fine. However, the story was far too short. I think this could have been a good story but somehow never progressed beyond a synopsis stage. It was as though the author had a vision of a story but ran out of steam and did not complete it.
