Product Description The Little Book of Horror series presents classic horror tales in a new light, as writer Steve Niles is paired with unique illustrators to re-tell stories that follow the text of the original tales. This book features all the horror that H.G. Wells brought to bear in his novel, with the bonus of seeing the story beautifully illustrated by the warped mind of Ted McKeever.

Big Story ... in a little book?! January 4, 2007 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I love Wells' classic "War Of The Worlds", and I was interested to see how a modern day horror writer would do a take on it. I am pleased to say that it is well presented in terms of book design, the writing is aimed at a young audience, and is a simplistic take on "War Of The Worlds". I can't honestly say that its great, as the art was probably not as good as it could have been, being that it was done someone who I truely respect. Ted McKeever's art is generally considered rough and disturbing, and what he did on this book had a flat polished feel. Its nice, but not that interesting. Don't expect a novel either ... it captures the important bits of "War Of The Worlds" in paragraphs, but it does feel like a complete story!
