donnie2books 's review for:
The War of The Worlds
by H.G. Wells
I've directed and acted in the staged radio version of this play twice.
I read the book and most everything I can find on this radio broadcast and the history of it.
The book is entirely different. It was published in 1897 so you really have to expect that the mode of communication from one town to the next, armed forces, no TV or radio, etc.
So if you do sit down to read this classic, be prepared. There is no Tom Cruise in this story.
In addition, there is a lot more narration so do keep that in mind.
With that being said, I thought it was a good read but not one of the classics I'd be in a hurry to re-read.
