The classic science fiction novel THE WAR OF THE WORLDS by H.G. Wells secured a place in history following the notorious 1938 radio adaptation - performed in the style of a news broadcast that panicked the listening public. Arguably Wells' most memorable and compelling novel, THE WAR OF THE WORLDS describes the invasion of Earth by ruthless Martians. Everyone knows the story, but Gabriel Mesta ventures to ask, What if it wasn't just a story? What if it was an account based on actual historical events? In THE MARTIAN WAR, Mesta speculates that Wells was himself a witness to the struggle for control of planet Earth, plunged into an epic battle between Earthlings and Martians as Wells and his companions stand up against the alien menace.
