The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells

3.0

---

Naturally considered a classic, this was my introduction to H.G. Wells. With family in a lot of the places mentioned, perhaps reading it as a young teen on a family visit wasn't my brightest idea but nevertheless its a fascinating read. I've given it 3 stars though as, though the ending is compelling and more interesting than the critics of the movie adaption will have you believe and it's well written, it isn't something that moved me or changed my literature standards in any huge way.
