The War of the Worlds, a groundbreaking science fiction novel by H. G. Wells first published in 1898, tells the story of an extraterrestrial invasion of southern England through the perspectives of two brothers. Recognized as one of the earliest tales featuring conflict between humans and Martians, the story has inspired numerous adaptations across media and has had a lasting influence on science and popular culture. Often interpreted as a reflection on Victorian fears, imperialism, and evolution, it remains a significant work in the science fiction canon.
