The War of the Worlds is a gripping tale of civilization undone by forces it cannot comprehend or control. When mysterious cylinders fall from the sky and unleash a merciless alien invasion, the comforts of modern life collapse with terrifying speed. Cities empty, social order dissolves, and humanity is reduced to flight, fear, and fragile hope. Blending scientific imagination with stark social insight, H. G. Wells transforms an invasion story into a chilling meditation on progress, power, and human vulnerability. As relentless as it is prophetic, The War of the Worlds remains one of the most unsettling visions of what happens when humanity discovers it is not the master of its own world.
