The Coming Race is a science fiction novel written by Annie Besant, first published in 1887. The novel is set in a utopian world where a highly advanced and technologically superior race called the Vril-ya live underground. The narrator, a wealthy American named Adam, discovers a secret entrance to the underground world and is taken in by the Vril-ya. He learns about their society, which is based on the use of a powerful energy source called Vril that gives them extraordinary abilities and allows them to manipulate matter and energy. The Vril-ya are peaceful and highly evolved, but they also have a dark side, as they believe in eugenics and the superiority of their own race. The novel explores themes of utopia, technology, power, and the dangers of unchecked progress. It is considered a classic of Victorian science fiction and has influenced many later works in the genre.THIS 34 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Changing World, by Annie Besant.
