No one would have believed, in the last years of the nineteenth century, that intelligent life beyond Earth was watching us. Studying us. Envying us. When massive cylinders fell from the sky and buried themselves in the English countryside, curious crowds gathered to witness what they thought was a meteorite. But when those cylinders unscrewed from within, what emerged would shatter humanity's place at the top of the evolutionary ladder. Towering tripods. Heat rays that incinerated everything in their path. And an enemy more advanced, more ruthless, and more alien than anyone could have imagined. H.G. Wells' "The War of the Worlds" – the story that invented the alien invasion. This is the complete, unabridged audiobook that asks one terrifying question: What happens when humanity becomes the hunted?

It's still Halloween night in Grove City, Ohio, when Shawn Dyer wakes up on the damp grass of Marsh Cemetery, across Home Road from Gantz Park, and watches a jack-o'-lantern burst into flame a few yards away, then a second one beside it. In their orange glow stand two furry creatures with pointed ears and beady eyes, unfolding leathery wings, and from somewhere in the dark, the voice that spoke Shawn's name in the creek tells him it never expected to see him again.
