Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I could not put it down.
Review: The book cover itself deserves 5 stars. If i could ever get to read it again it would be today.The book got me an A+ on my report.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: It was Okay.
Review: The book was okay if you like incredibly boring details. If he (the author) would have put in a little more action, it might be a 3 or 4 star book. Otherwise, it was okay, although a little farfetched.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Terrifying Story
Review: Wells is a master storyteller. He is good at developing a thick plot and providing you with enough information to suck you into the story. While his futuristic depictions are dated, his themes are not. His style is very cinematographic - he describes the actions frame by frame filling in the details of what stands in the foreground, background, and the sides. It's not unique but he's one of the best at it. If you are in for a quality story, check this one!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Realistic Invasion written in the 1800's
Review: Although many people found this book boring, I found it pretty exciting for a book written in the 1800's. I do have to admit that the beginning is slow, but people shouldn't judge a book after only starting it. Also the people who thought that it should be set in the U.S. should realize that this was written in the 1800's by an Englishman. What I found surprising about the book was how the machines were portrayed very realistically for a time without many of them.I found the explanations of the martians and their machines pretty realistic. And also the picture of the ruined world after the martian invasion was amazing. Definately a book for sci-fi fans only.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Alien invasion!
Review: I recommend this book to someone who is interested in aliens. This is a very exciting book with aliens attacking Earth. It is a bit long with many difficult words, but if you like aliens, it is worth it!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Need to be a science-fiction fan
Review: This book was okay because of the possiblity of other life. But the way he explain it made you fall a sleep. The book was boring but, in some ways it was exciting. The way he descrided the aliens it sounded childish and very fake. The aliens sounded like a eight legged chicken. Overall it was a book for very big fans of science-fiction. Anybody else would not like it.

Rating: 1 stars

Review: This book didn't deserve five stars. This book was not exciting. It is not going to happen is real life what happened in the book. Nobody liked it in class.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: it deserves one thumb up !
Review: this book was okay but extended too long so it got boring at times. it should have been in the U.S. It should have considered making it in NewYork. Then it could have been more exiting. Then we could have understood it much better because most of the words were in british. It would have been a lot better. they should make a remake of it in a english background. they should also update the book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A GREAT SCI FI
Review: This book had a good story to it but it might have been better if they centered it in one of the major cities in the United States. And also if the president of the United States was invoved in it. They should have done it something like 1997 number one movie of the summer '' INDEPEDANCE DAY''.
