The War of the Worlds - Feedbooks Edition by Herbert G. Wells
The War of the Worlds (1898) is a science fiction novel by H. G. Wells. It describes the experiences of a journalist (narrator) in Woking and his brother, a medical student from London as the Earth is invaded by Martians. It is said to be the first story that details a conflict between mankind and an alien race. The novel is narrated by an unnamed writer of scientific articles.
The novel is narrated by Addie, an orphaned girl, who travels with confidence man "Long Boy" Moses Pray during the early 1930s. Their travels are mainly in the State of Alabama, but they do go elsewhere on occasion. Addie states at the beginning of the novel that Long Boy may or may not be her father; she says that her late mother was the "wildest" girl in her town, and that Long Boy is one of three possible fathers for her.
