H. G. Wells wrote The War of the Worlds in 1898, when there was much speculation about life on the planet Mars.

The book is considered to be one of the first science fiction novels. In the story, an English gentleman narrates the events of a violent and fast paced Martian invasion.

The frightening images of people fleeing from gigantic tripod machines and the prospect of life under Martian rule have served as an inspiration for popular culture.

With their death rays and giant killing machines, the Martians pose a formidable enemy.

Will humans successfully defend Earth from its invaders or will the Martians be victorious in The War of the Worlds?

Listen to this entertaining classic and discover for yourself!

The story opens with the following famous sentence: No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's and yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutinized and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinize the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water.

The novel has served as a template for many derivatives or inspired works, including comics, countless books, a TV series, several films, and a bestselling musical.

Overall, The War of the Worlds has become an early milestone in and inspiration for the invasion genre.

The novel demonstrates Wells’ typical outlook on human nature and offers a good deal of criticism on society and people’s ignorance and vanity.

The War of the Worlds can be read as an indictment of European colonial actions around the globe at that time – with which the injustice of the Martian invasion can be compared.

Wells has since been credited with predicting quite a number of technologies, such as laser-like rays, industrial robot-like machines, and chemical warfare.
