Just finished the H.G. Wells classic War of the Worlds.

Would recommend this book to everyone, its one of those stories I have always taken for granted, thanks in part to the films, but Im really glad Ive gotten to read it. (cheers urgeok)

Surprised how little the films reflect the book but at least the Spielberg version, on occasion, nods in the general direction of the book. Im thinking the red weed, some similarities with the curate and Tim Robbins character and the tripods carrying cages for captured humans. Whatever you do, dont be like me and assume that because you've seen both films numerous times you know the book.

Read this book people and enjoy!
