The BBC has done a new revision of War of the Worlds, the classic novel from H.G. Wells. I was first introduced to this story through George Pal's classic 1953 film. I also enjoyed the 2005 version that starred Tom Cruise.
I never read the book until I was an adult (right around when the 2005 film was out), although I did have the Classics Illustrated version of War of the Worlds when I was a kid (the cover of which is above).
The new BBC version of War of the Worlds is set in Edwardian England, which is where the original story of the novel took place. I'm looking forward to seeing this, whenever and however it gets shown in the States.
