The War of the Worlds

H. G. Wells, in full Herbert George Wells, (born September 21, 1866, Bromley, Kent, England-died August 13, 1946, London), English novelist, journalist, sociologist, and historian best known for such science fiction novels as The Time Machine and The War of the Worlds and such comic novels as Tono-Bungay and The History of Mr. Polly. The War of the Worlds chronicles the events of a Martian invasion as experienced by an unidentified male narrator and his brother. The story begins a few years before the invasion. During the astronomical opposition of 1894, when Mars is closer to Earth than usual, several observatories spot flashes of light on the surface of Mars. The narrator witnesses one of these flashes through a telescope at an observatory in Ottershaw, Surrey, England. He immediately alerts his companion, Ogilvy, "the well-known astronomer." Ogilvy quickly dismisses the idea that the flashes are an indication of life on Mars. He assures the narrator that "the chances against anything manlike on Mars are a million to one." The flashes continue unexplained for several nights.
