The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I knew the story from the movie. Wells' source novel provides the grimy, nasty back and forth moving around and conjecturing detail that I didn't recall. Who knew alien invasions were so messy and destructive. And while climate change gave polluters a bad name, "The War of the Worlds" is one man's take on rehabilitating their status. Fun and concerning, but a bit overwrought and a bit lengthy for the mood.
