This classic tale of an alien invasion serves as a catalyst for a
whole range of media adaptations in radio, film, and literature.
Playing on the public's fears of unknown worlds, Wells brings to
life an alien race from Mars bent on consuming the whole of Earth
and feeding on the human race. In an epic story of survival, an
unnamed hero battles otherworldly creatures and technology his
odyssey to be reunited with his wife. H.G. Wells created The War of
the Worlds amidst an 1890s backdrop of rampant and rapid
industrialization, global British imperialism, and increasing
tension with Europe-all of which are reflected in his tale of
Martian attack. The story remains startlingly relevant today in our
era wracked with worldwide concerns over terrorism and national
security. This new edition, with an introduction by mass-psychology
expert Robert E. Bartholomew, is sure to enthrall and intrigue yet
another generation of readers. British author HERBERT GEORGE WELLS
(1866-1946) is best known for his groundbreaking science fiction
novels The Time Machine (1895), The Invisible Man (1897), and The
War of the Worlds (1898).
