About this listen

 Step into the thrilling world of H. G. Wells’ The War of the Worlds, a pioneering science fiction novel that first captivated readers in 1897. Serialized in Pearsons Magazine in the UK and Cosmopolitan magazine in the US, it made its hardcover debut in 1898, published by William Heinemann in London. This gripping tale, crafted between 1895 and 1897, explores the harrowing conflict between humanity and an extraterrestrial race. Through the eyes of an unnamed narrator in Surrey and his younger brother in London, we witness the terrifying invasion of Martians as they descend upon southern England. The War of the Worlds remains a cornerstone of the science fiction genre, inspiring countless discussions and analyses. - Summary by Wikipedia
