Worthy Sequel to Wells's Classic Novel



Massacre of Mankind by Stephen Baxter is a sequel to H.G. Wells's The War of the Worlds. Fourteen years after the first Martian invasion described in Wells's book, Earthlings have learned a lot from it and harnessed Martian technology. However, the Martians have learned too, and are preparing for a second invasion which will be even more deadly than the first.

Massacre of Mankind is a pretty good sequel to The War of the Worlds. For me, it was interesting to read a book by a modern author according to his interpretation of Wells's classic.
