Description
This classic science-fiction novel begins when a strange, meteor-like object lands in the heart of England and the inhabitants of Earth become victims of a terrible attack. A ruthless race of Martians, armed with heat rays and poisonous smoke, intends to destroy everything in its path. As an unnamed hero struggles to cross the devastated wastelands, the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. H. G. Wells was a pioneer of modern science fiction. First serialised in the United Kingdom in 1897, The War of the Worlds is one of the earliest stories to depict conflict with an extraterrestrial race and has influenced countless adaptations and sequels.
