As the clock struck 8 p.m. in New York City on the night of October 30, 1938, Orson Welles stood on a podium inside a Madison Avenue radio studio. "The War of the Worlds" Radio Broadcast Created a National Panic. Orson Welles' radio drama is the most famous broadcast in radio history. This is not that, but it is my take on H.G. Wells classic novel. Read dramatically and accompanied with music and sounds effects, it should be just as entertaining. The book will be released in single chapter episodes each week.
