The War of the Worlds was written by H. G. Wells in 1898. The story tells of large metal cylinders that fall to earth, signaling the beginning of a Martian invasion. The Martians gradually take over London and the surrounding area, causing death and destruction, and it seems that no one can stop them. Offering a quick way into a classic novel, this shortened, accessible edition includes a glossary in back.
