The story begins in an observatory, where an astronomer notices that Mars, older than Earth, has experienced a sudden drop off in sea levels and temperature. Its inhabitants seek a way off of their planet in order to survive these changes, and they achieve this by firing themselves off of Mars in canisters. From Earth, one only sees sudden explosions on the surface of Mars, but this fascinates the scientific community.One canister lands near the narrator's home. It opens and a Martian comes out. It is nearly the size of a bear and greyish with large eyes and tentacles. The Martians dislike Earth's atmosphere and retreat back into the canister. A human delegation, including the astronomer, approaches while waving the white flag of peace. The Martians vaporize the humans with a Heat Ray before continuing to assemble their machinery.The British military arrives, and the entire small town of Woking is stuck in a tense standoff. After receiving heavy fire from the military, the Heat Ray suddenly erupts. The narrator takes his wife to a neighboring town, hoping that she will be safer there. He returns to Woking to return a cart, but a new Martian weapon forces him to crash. The Martians have constructed Tripods-brutal, three-legged robots, manned by Martians. Each has a heat ray and a chemical weapon, known as Black Smoke. These Tripods quickly destroy most of the military and Woking, leaving wreckage in their wake. An artilleryman warns the narrator that another canister has landed nearby, which separates the narrator from his wife. The two try to escape Woking, and they hear that the military has taken down a Tripod by the Thames, a great victory.

The narrator fashions a raft and tries to float down the Thames stopping at Walton. There, he meets a curate, with whom he teams up. The Martians break the line of defense around London and release the Black Smoke, causing a mass exodus from London. The novel's point of view then switches to the neighbors' brother, who is now a refugee from London. He flees to the Essex coast, a journey he completes with all the other refugees. The brother saves a family from being robbed, and the family then comes with him. They buy passage on a ship to America, but just as they are about to leave, Martians appear and almost destroy the ship. However, just in time, another ship called the HMS Thunder Child rams the Tripods, destroying itself but allowing the other ship filled with civilians to leave.

◆Annotations: 60 best quotes from H.G. Wells When massive, intelligent aliens from Mars touch down in Victorian England and threaten to destroy the civilized world, humanity's vaunted knowledge proves to be of little use. H.G. Wells's masterpiece of speculative fiction has thrilled and delighted generations of readers, spawned countless imitations, and inspired dramatizations by such masters as Orson Welles and Steven Spielberg. The War of the Worlds is a fantasy that is both startlingly up-to-date and in touch with the most ancient of human illustrationfears. In 1960, Edward Gorey prepared a set of his inimitable pen-and-ink drawings to illustrate a new edition of Wells's The War of the Worlds for the legendary Looking Glass Library. Characteristically quirky, elegant, and entrancing, Gorey's visual take on Wells's seminal tour de force has been unavailable for close to fifty years. This special hardcover edition from NYRB Classics brings back for today's readers a richly rewarding collaboration between two modern masters of all that's wonderful and strange.
