The Coming Race (Esprios Classics)

The Coming Race is a novel by Edward Bulwer-Lytton, published anonymously in 1871.

It has also been published as Vril, the Power of the Coming Race.

Some readers have believed the account of a superior subterranean master race and the energy-form called "Vril", at least in part; some theosophists, notably Helena Blavatsky, William Scott-Elliot, and Rudolf Steiner, accepted the book as based on occult truth, in part.

One 1960 book, The Morning of the Magicians, suggested that a secret Vril Society existed in Weimar Berlin.
