Book 116: The War of the Worlds

After reading The Time Machine I decided that I loved H.G. Wells, and though it may sound like I changed my mind about this because of the way I started this, I do still love him, but The War of the Worlds was a little disappointing.

I loved the first half of the book. I thought it was brilliant. It brought up a lot of good philosophical questions like I expected from Wells, even the last half was good. It was the ending that killed it. It was just weird, and to avoid spoilers that all I'm going to say about it.

I give this book 8 cigars out of 10. It was good and I enjoyed reading it, it just wasn't what I expected.
