The thrilling conclusion to Mór Jókai's prophetic sci-fi saga, brought vividly to life in a new English translation.
In Novel of the Future Century: Eternal Peace, Hungarian visionary Mór Jókai imagines a world reborn-one that has emerged from the ashes of global conflict into an era of technological marvel and supposed harmony. But beneath the utopian façade, political tensions simmer, cultural divides persist, and the boundaries between progress and power begin to blur.
This companion to The Eternal Battle continues the story of humanity's bold leap into the 21st century as envisioned from the 19th. Blending speculative futurism, satire, and sweeping geopolitical drama, Jókai explores themes of peace, control, and the cost of idealism with astonishing prescience.
Presented in a newly revised translation by Lucius Madison and published by Cinder Oracle, this edition preserves the brilliance of Jókai's prose while making it accessible to a new generation of readers. Featuring a foreword and historical note, it invites readers to engage with one of Europe's earliest and most ambitious works of science fiction.
