The War of the Worlds

They came from Mars—and Earth would never be the same.

The War of the Worlds (1898), by H. G. Wells, is one of the most influential science fiction novels ever written and the blueprint for the modern alien invasion story.

The novel follows the terrifying arrival of Martian invaders, armed with heat-rays, towering machines, and an intelligence far beyond humanity's. As cities burn and societies collapse, ordinary men and women are forced to confront the fragility of civilization and the will to survive.

Wells combines thrilling adventure with sharp social critique, questioning human arrogance, colonialism, and the limits of progress. The story's realism and intensity were so powerful that it later inspired Orson Welles' famous 1938 radio broadcast, which caused nationwide panic.

A masterpiece of suspense, imagination, and prophetic vision, The War of the Worlds continues to resonate as a chilling reminder of both humanity's vulnerability and resilience.
