The Martian War

Wells is a 2005 science fiction novel by American writer Kevin J. Anderson, published under his pseudonym Gabriel Mesta.

In War of the Worlds, Wells himself is the main character who witnesses the Martian attack alongside his fiancée Jane, Thomas Huxley, and Percival Lowell.

The British government brings them together with Dr. Moreau and Hawley Griffin, who help develop a strain of cholera to be used against the Martians.

The premise is similar to the earlier The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Volume II as both involve a group of literary figures being brought together by a secret agency of the British government to fight the Martians.

The Martian War uses the same first name given to the Invisible Man by the creators of the comic book The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Vol.
