The scientist who discovers how to transform himself in <i>The Invisible Man</i> (1897) will also discover, too late, that he has become unmoored from society and from his own sanity. <i>The War of the Worlds</i> (1898)--the seminal masterpiece of alien invasion adapted by Orson Welles for his notorious 1938 radio drama, and subsequently by several filmmakers--imagines a fierce race of Martians who devastate Earth and feed on their human victims while their voracious vegetation, the red weed, spreads over the ruined planet. <p/>Here are three classic science fiction novels that, more than a century after their original publication, show no sign of losing their grip on readers' imaginations.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>H.
