The War of the Worlds

Its just an explosion on mars, right? The book The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells, 251 pages, is about a man who lives in Woking ,Surrey and experiences a meteor crash in Horsell Common. Not to far from where the man lives. He's one of the first to discover a cylinder which contains Martians, which are big and grayish.Then they tried to create peace with it, but it fought back with a heat ray! It killed an astronomer and random civilians. This starts the man's story on a epic journey to survive, Will the world survive this attack? You have to read and see. This is an awesome book, and I am probably going watch the movie!.
