WAR OF THE WORLDS: First published in 1895, this classic tale of the Martian attack on Earth, is riveting. I listened to the audio book and thoroughly enjoyed it. Well's story has gone on to be made into movies in their own right, and als seved as the inspiration for many more. I confess to having a copy of the musical version which was released in the 70s, and do enjoy hearing the great Richard Burton as the narrator. This version, while lacking the Burton voice, was a great listen just the same. ( )
