A stunning full-colour illustrated adaptation of H. G. Wells' sci-fi classic, from the illustrator of A Boy Called Christmas and The Iron Man. 1894. Across space, this earth is being watched by envious eyes. What seems to be a meteorite falls to earth, but from the debris unfolds a terrifying alien threat . . . Leon and and his scientist wife race against the clock to end the war of all worlds. This is a modernised graphic novel retelling of one of the most popular science fiction novels ever written, now suitable for a younger 9+ readership. 'Exquisite, detailed illustrations . . . convey as much emotion as do words in this remarkable re-imagining of War of the Worlds.' Susan Price, Carnegie winning author of Ghost Drum
'An absolute masterpiece.' Kieran Larwood, author of The World of Podkin One-Ear series
