    Language is absolutely beautiful! Loved the way it was written, the overall story, it was amazing. Everyone should read it at least once!

    By far the best version of an alien invasion. No virgin flying frisbees with pathetic laser guns we got chad three legged mechs that have heat beams capable of incinerating not only itโ€™s target but itโ€™s entire surroundings. No need for air superiority just get ten of these and you can collapse an entire nation in one go. As you can tell I love the tripod concept. And to think this was made in the early 19th century (1850-1899 is the early 19th century for those who donโ€™t understand) and this concept seems incredibly modern. I guess I should stop my review here. Good book, long, and full of story. Do recommend :D

  • Awesome book

    I honestly remember the first time I read this book and it was amazing the perfect blend of science and fiction and realistic for the time in which it takes place I haven't read this book in years and I forgot all about it

  • Not to interesting

    By prohardrelic
    the book is pretty boring from my perspective, it takes to many chapters to one event to happen

  • Still the Best

    By Dwardeng
    As far as alien invasion stories go, this is still unrivaled. Both the original movie and Spielberg's remake are ok, but not up to the lofty heights of the book. Besides, both movies have such corny endings, which I think Wells would have despised.

  • Great book

    I do not read very many books, because I just cannot find one that catches my attention, but this book is great! 9/10 would recommend.

    I don't like how many pages there are, I'd rather read a series of books with less pages than one book with a lot of pages.

    By Alex Banuelos
    War of the Worlds is a literary classic sure to withstand the test of centuries. The story is easy enough for even younger readers to follow and the theme is gravely enlightening. Though some parts regarding the narrator's brother seem superfluous, the overall experience is a compelling one. I would recommend this book to anybody.
