This is the most famous of the HG Wells books I am working thru. Recently I have seen the Spielberg film, the new BBC TV series version and the TV version on SBS, all within in the last six months and now I have read the book as well. There are at least 10 movie versions, another 10 TV versions, numerous radio versions in the old days and don't forget Jeff Wayne's musical narration LP which I also have a copy of. I have also noticed there is an Australian Version. However this is the first time I have read the original book. All of these versions go off on their own tangent when you compare them to the original. There is one last copy I found last week, the stamp version. I must have entered the Twilight Zone.
