 What if the Martian invasion was not entirely the product of H. G. Wells's vivid imagination? What if Wells witnessed something that spurred him to write The War of the Worlds as a warning? From drafty London flats to the steamy Sahara, to the surface of the moon and beyond, The Martian War takes the reader on an exhilarating journey with Wells and his companions.

"...smoothly mixes Victorian sober rationalism with the fast pace of the period's boys' adventure yarns. The result is a thoughtful pastiche of Wells's groundbreaking "scientific romances" that should intrigue both historical/literary SF readers and action-adventure SF fans." -- Publishers Weekly

"a whimsically inventive pseudobiography. Both Wells and Anderson fans should be delighted." -- Booklist

"The author captures the spirit of the age in these linked tales that serve as seasonal witnesses to an age of invention and literary imagination." - Library Journal
