Reader's note

This is arguably where science fiction as we know it today began. The influence of The War of the Worlds on modern sci-fi is undeniable, and you only need to read this book to see why. The imagery is astounding, and the depiction of aliens is staggering. The night after a shooting star is seen streaking across the sky, a cylinder is discovered on Horsell Common. Fascinated and exhilarated, the local people approach the mysterious object armed with nothing more than a white flag. But when gruesome alien creatures emerge armed with all-destroying heat-rays, their rashness turns rapidly to fear. As the rays blaze towards them, it soon becomes clear they have no choice but to flee - or die. Get stuck in today and read this classic piece of dark, sci-fi literature by H. G. Wells, and understand why his name is one that commands respect to this day!
