The War of the Worlds 1: The Eve Of War

It's time for a new book and this time, it's WAR! And not just any war. THE WAR! OF THE WORLDS! We're reading through HG Wells's classic and let me tell you we're both loving every page. In part one we meet the chronically exhausted invaders who are possibly high on oxygen, the comically broad locals who can't form full English words and one brave but foolhardy astronomer, may he rest in peace. The shocks come early as Dave reveals he's never listened to the Jeff Wayne album - and it just gets more and more dramatic from there. 

We'd love to hear what you make of the book. Get in touch at sharkliveroilpodcast@gmail.com or find us on twitter @sharkliveroil 

If you're reading along with us, go from the start of the book to chapter 9: The Fighting Begins.
