Summary
The Martian Onslaught: A Vision of Cosmic Terror
He succeeds in placing before the reader a vision of the world in cosmic time.
When an adaptation of this famous story of a Martian invasion was broadcast forty years after it was written, it was believed to be true and produced a panic-stricken stampede out of New York.
The combination of broad sweep with meticulous detail that H. G. Wells achieves in this great pioneering work of science fiction remains unmatched.
