The war of the worlds
by H G Wells.
I'm reading this at present. It's not all that long a story,it's supposed to be one of the best sci fi books ever written,this is the book which all sci fi writers have used as a source for being able help them write this type of fiction I read.
This story is based around south England and is about being invaded by martians from Mars.
I am quickly reading this so I can watch the new movie due for release soon staring Tom Cruise.
I remember the the first one ,which was brillaint staring Jean Barry.
Worth reading, great build up and Wells is so good at small details, and trying to describe.
Very ahead of his time.
I bought this book second hand for 10pence a good few months back.,just got round to reading it now..
thanks
