H.G. Wells unleashes an extraterrestrial invasion like no other in "The War of the Worlds". In this groundbreaking science fiction classic, readers witness the relentless onslaught of Martian tripods on Earth. Set against the backdrop of Victorian England, Wells crafts a tale of survival, fear, and the indomitable spirit of humanity in the face of cosmic terror.
As the Martians deploy their devastating heat rays and poisonous gas, the novel becomes a gripping exploration of the consequences of alien contact. Wells's tale of a Martian invasion was so terrifying it caused panic when performed on the radio.
