The war is between humans from the Earth and martians from Mars. The actual martian people are strange
and I don't understand how the book describes them but apparently they have tentacles and this thing that shoots invisible heat rays. They are stuck in this pit that they're pod made when it crashed. The martians can't get out of the pit because our gravity is stronger an weighs them down, but that doesn't stop them. A second pod (there are 10) comes and there are giant tripods with saucer heads. I don't know if they have heat rays or not,
but they must still kill people somehow. The army is useless against all four of these martians. FOUR!! Two martians and two tripods. If this happened during our time the army could nuke the martians to pieces. I don't know how they are going to stop the martians, if they ever do.

Are the Martians fighting in self-defense, or did they come here looking to conquer?
ReplyDeleteErm, if we nuked Britain, regarless of Martians, I don't think they'd be too happy with us.
ReplyDelete@Dorothea-They are looking to conquer. Earth didn't even know they existed. Remember, this is in what, 1950? They technology needed for looking at Mars effectively just isn't there.
