'Cities, nations, civilization, progress-it's all over. That game's
up. We're beat.' One of the most important and influential invasion
narratives ever written, The War of the Worlds (1897) describes the
coming of the Martians, who land in Woking, and make their way
remorselessly towards the capital, wreaking chaos, death, and
destruction. The novel is closely associated with anxiety about a
possible invasion of Great Britain at the turn of the century, and
concerns about imperial expansion and its impact, and it drew on
the latest astronomical knowledge to imagine a desert planet, Mars,
turning to Earth for its future. The Martians are also
evolutionarily superior to mankind.
