This volume of "The War of the Worlds" offers a visualized glimpse into the emotional landscape of the novel. The text of this literary classic was analyzed using machine learning and natural language processing techniques. The research returned data containing a happiness ranking for every word in each chapter. That information was formed into the art on the cover of this novel, as well as on the interior pages (printed in full color). More information about the methods used and a list of other volumes in this series can be found at https: //tiffanyfrance.com/ml-books/ A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the volumes in the ERV series will be donated to Project Gutenberg in support of their mission.

Genesis
One of the first great alien invasion stories. Brilliantly written, the book is able to capture the bitter raw human struggle for survival. As well as creating a scenario that appeals to reason. Excellent book that any fan of Sci-Fi or classic literature must read.

Okay
I was actually a bit disappointed in this book.
Maybe I expected too much. I found there were too many detailed descrpitons of the invading machines.
I enjoyed The Invisible Man more.
However, it is worth reading and I did like it.

More complicated than you expected
Wells' classic sci- fi novella, which is the basis for so many modern alien invasion stories, follows a simple plot line ie-Martians arrive, narrator flees, hides, flees, Martians die and narrator has survived. However, the writing itself is complex, beautifully detailed, referencing plenty of Victorian era science, using metaphor and simile, and painting a clear, suspenseful picture of terror. The language is more complicated than many would expect and can pose a challenge for some students, but the book is well worth it, and should be a quick read for capable readers.
