About the book

They came from Mars. They brought destruction. Mankind had no warning.


The War of the Worlds is H. G. Wells's legendary novel of first contact, mass panic, and existential dread. A landmark in science fiction, it introduced the alien invasion genre—and it remains just as terrifying and thrilling today as it was in 1898.


An ordinary world shattered by extraordinary forces.

As Martian cylinders crash into the English countryside, people gather in curiosity—until the heat-rays begin to fire. What follows is an unstoppable onslaught as towering tripods sweep across cities, vaporizing armies and paralyzing humanity with fear. In the face of technological superiority, one question lingers: Can mankind survive?


⚠ A chilling allegory of imperialism, extinction, and helplessness.

Wells delivers more than just spectacle—he offers a critique of colonial arrogance and a haunting look at humanity's fragility. Blending action, horror, and philosophy, The War of the Worlds remains one of the most influential and enduring science fiction novels ever written.
