My first Sci-fi book that I ever really got into was War of the Worlds for a 4th grade book report. Since that time its been book after book for me and I will always be grateful to HG Wells for kicking off my love of reading.
Also so the interesting little tid bit that HG Wells wrote the first rule set for a miniature wargame: Little Wars . Whats odd is that when you read it, the rules have a lot of the odd "English-isms" that GW still uses :).

ReplyDeletePossibly because they are English?

This is true :).
ReplyDeleteIn my last job we always wrote documentation for England and for the States. Sometimes I wish GW would do that. :)
