Description

The War of the Worlds is a science fiction novel by English author H.

G. Wells. It is one of the earliest stories to detail a conflict between mankind and an extra-terrestrial race.

The novel is the first-person narrative of both an unnamed protagonist in Surrey and of his younger brother in London as southern England is invaded by Martians.

The novel is one of the most commented-on works in the science fiction canon.

The story has been related to invasion literature of the time.

The novel has been variously interpreted as a commentary on evolutionary theory, British imperialism, and generally Victorian superstitions, fears, and prejudices.
