This story is one of the most famous and frightening science fiction stories ever written. When a strange object falls from the sky and lands in southern England, few people are worried. But then strange creatures climb out and start killing people. Before long, the land is being attacked by huge fighting machines and nobody is safe. From p. 4 of cover.
