In the late 19th century, a cylinder crashes down near London. When George investigates, a Martian activates an evil machine and begins destroying everything in its path! George must find a way to survive a War of the Worlds. H.G. Wells was a professional writer and journalist, who published more than a hundred books, including novels, histories, essays and programmes for world regeneration. Wells's prophetic imagination was first displayed in pioneering works of science fiction, but later he became an apostle of socialism, science and progress. His controversial views on sexual equality and the shape of a truly developed nation remain directly relevant to our world today. He was, in Bertrand Russell's words, 'an important liberator of thought and action'. Brian Aldiss is a famed science fiction writer. Patrick Parrinder has written on H.G. Wells, science fiction, James Joyce and the history of the English novel. Since 1986 he has been Professor of English at the University of Reading. Andy Sawyer is a Librarian at the University of Liverpool with a particular interest in science fiction. He has annotated four volumes in this series.

　　赫伯特·乔治·威尔斯，英国著名的小说家，也是新闻记者、政治家、社会学家和历史学家。他创作的科幻小说对该领域影响深远，如“时间旅行”、“外星人”、“反乌托邦”等都是20世纪科幻小说中的主流话题。威尔斯的科幻小说以软科幻为主。主要描写各种先进的科学技术对未来世界的影响。以及这科学技术所带来的社会问题。政治冲突也就成为了他的小说中约一个重要方面。他的作品也展现了未来科技发展的各种可能性。在他的作品中科技不仅给人类带来了便利，也同时产生反作用，他认为科学并不一定是人类的伙伴。在他的作品中充满了科学技术给人类带来的威胁：外入侵社会暴政、战争、人种变异、太阳消亡。威尔斯的创作方法对当时及后世英国和世界科学幻想小说的发展有重要影响。他的《当睡者醒来时》开创了科幻小说中重要的一支血脉：“反乌托邦”小说。后来俄罗斯（苏联）作家亚米扎京的《我们》、英国赫胥黎的《美丽新世界》。还有乔治·奥威尔的《一九八四》都继承了这一传统。他在许多小女孩中对“大脑袋”的外星人的描述成了科幻小说中历来对外星人的“标准形象”。他的科幻小说也遭到了一科幻小说家的批评他们认为应该把更多的信念放在人类的灵魂和精神之上。
