The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells Summary
Overview of The War of the Worlds
H.G. Wells' alien invasion masterpiece sparked mass hysteria when Orson Welles' 1938 radio adaptation convinced listeners Martians had landed. This never-out-of-print classic influenced filmmakers like Spielberg and critiques imperialism through the lens of superior beings conquering Earth.

When the Sky Falls: A Victorian Nightmare That Became Our Reality
Nobody expected the end of the world to arrive on a summer evening in Surrey. Yet there it was-a massive cylinder, still hot from its journey through space, half-buried in the common like a monstrous artillery shell. Curious locals gathered around this "meteorite," chatting idly about scientific oddities while their children played nearby. Then the cylinder began to unscrew from within. What emerged wasn't the friendly cosmic neighbor we might hope for today-it was something that would redefine humanity's place in the universe forever. H.G. Wells didn't just write an alien invasion story in 1898; he held up a mirror to Victorian England's imperial arrogance and asked a devastating question: What if we were the colonized instead of the colonizers? The answer would terrify readers for generations and fundamentally reshape how we imagine contact with extraterrestrial life.
