The War of the Worlds

Informationen zum Autor Herbert George Wells's (1866-1946) career as an author was fostered by a childhood mishap. He broke his leg and spent his convalescence reading every book he could find. Wells earned a scholarship at the Norman School of Science in London. Wells's "science fiction" (although he never called it such) was influenced by his interest in biology. H. G. Wells gained fame with his first novel, The Time Machine (1895). He followed this with The Island of Dr. Moreau (1896), The Invisible Man (1897), and The War Of The Worlds (1898). Zusammenfassung Now, one of the greatest sci fi thrillers of all time in an action–packed format with snap–in–place model of a Martian craft. Just in time for the Tom Cruise/Steven Spielberg summer blockbuster!
