Guide Review
"The Complete War of the Worlds"
H.G. Wells published "The War of the Worlds" in 1898. He created his work at the perfect time, in the perfect place. This book provides the complete history of "The War of the Worlds," from its first serialization in 1897 through its many versions: comic books, radio, film, stage, and even computer games. The work has been translated into "countless languages," and "has inspired a wide range of invasion tales in every medium." In short, it has experienced dramatic success!
