Ch 15: What Had Happened In Surrey • The War of the Worlds audiobook• Book 1: The Coming of the Martians 10.05.2021

During this chapter I realised that some of Wells' most boringly named ones have the most banging Martian vs humans battle sequences in the story. We're also introduced to the 'black smoke' cannisters, one of, for my money, science fiction's most inventive weapons.

He is not an insurance agent." A gripping scene meeting the Curate, who is a dramatically different character to Parson Nathaniel from Jeff Wayne's adaptation of this story. My audiobook adaptation of H.G. Wells' legenda...

Ch: 12 • What I Saw of the Destruction of Weybridge & Shepperton • The War of the Worlds audiobook • Book 1: The Coming of the Martians 10.05.2021

***This is a re-upload of Book 1: Chapter 12. For some reason the end was cut off the last version, so here it is again. Apologies if it messes up your play order.*** The invaders decide they'd rather Weybridge and Shepperton not exist in a literally scorching set piece of destruction from the godfather of sci-fi. It's at this point you wonder if, deep down, Wells just really liked describing huma...
