CALIFICACIÓN 3.5

Este libro tiene sus ratos y sus ratos. Hay momentos en que se me hizo muy interesante por el tema de los marcianos, de los ataques, de sus máquinas y todo. Y en otros momentos en que sentía que el relleno comenzaba a sobrar.

Pero a pesar de todo es un libro que vale la pena leer por todo lo que trae en su interior, tanto narración del personaje como descripción de algunas cosas marcianas.

There are a few interesting parallels to invaders from outer space to those of other countries. It was an interesting idea but not as well written as other stories in my opinion.

the interesting nature of the plot of this book could not entirely combat the bore of the incredibly matter-of-fact style of writing

juuso's review against another edition

Minulle Maailmojen sota ei ole kestänyt kovin hyvin aikaa. Se on toiminut esikuvana niin monelle teokselle avaruusolentojen hyökkäyksestä, että samantapaiset kohtaukset on saanut nähdä ja lukea jo useaan kertaan.

Myöskään kirjalliselta tyyliltään tämä ei antanut erityisesti. Parasta kirjassa oli ehkä marsilaisten hyökkäyksen epäsuorien seurausten kuvaus: pakolaisuus, moraalinen rappio ja sekasorto.

Mutta ehkä suurin vika oli että kirjana tämä tuntui hieman tylsältä.
