The War of the Worlds (1898) follows an anonymous philosophical writer in Surrey as Martians arrive in cylinders, unleash Heat-Rays and Black Smoke, and march toward London on towering tripods. Often credited as the first modern alien-invasion novel, Wells’ vision of imperial collapse and biological reckoning has shaped a century of science fiction. 🎧 Available with subtitles in: 🇬🇧 English · 🇲🇽 Spanish · 🇧🇷 Portuguese · 🇨🇳 Chinese · ⏱ Chapters 0:00 Title 0:06 Chapter 1 — THE EVE OF THE WAR 16:05 Chapter 2 — THE FALLING STAR 25:04 Chapter 3 — ON HORSELL COMMON 31:44 Chapter 4 — THE CYLINDER OPENS 39:54 Chapter 5 — THE HEAT-RAY 50:33 Chapter 6 — THE HEAT-RAY IN THE CHOBHAM ROAD 56:16 Chapter 7 — HOW I REACHED HOME 1:05:27 Chapter 8 — FRIDAY NIGHT 1:11:56 Chapter 9 — THE FIGHTING BEGINS 1:25:01 Chapter 10 — IN THE STORM 1:39:39 Chapter 11 — AT THE WINDOW 1:53:00 Chapter 12 — WHAT I SAW OF THE DESTRUCTION OF WEYBRIDGE AND SHEPPERTON 2:18:33 Chapter 13 — HOW I FELL IN WITH THE CURATE 2:30:43 Chapter 14 — IN LONDON 2:55:44 Chapter 15 — WHAT HAD HAPPENED IN SURREY 3:14:39 Chapter 16 — THE EXODUS FROM LONDON 3:42:53 Chapter 17 — THE “THUNDER CHILD” 4:05:10 Chapter 18 — UNDER FOOT 4:22:08 Chapter 19 — WHAT WE SAW FROM THE RUINED HOUSE 4:45:11 Chapter 20 — THE DAYS OF IMPRISONMENT 4:58:27 Chapter 21 — THE DEATH OF THE CURATE 5:09:41 Chapter 22 — THE STILLNESS 5:16:17 Chapter 23 — THE WORK OF FIFTEEN DAYS 5:24:42 Chapter 24 — THE MAN ON PUTNEY HILL 6:02:57 Chapter 25 — DEAD LONDON 6:25:48 Chapter 26 — WRECKAGE 6:38:49 Chapter 27 — THE EPILOGUE 6:48:07 End 🎙 Credits Text: Project Gutenberg (https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/36) Narration: Cori Samuel via LibriVox (https://lirivox.org/reader/92) This recording is in the public domain. 🕯 About LitReads LitReads produces synchronized bilingual editions of classic literature for readers worldwide.
