Description
Long ago, the Tripods, huge, three-legged machines, descended upon Earth and took control. Now people unquestioningly accept the Tripods’ power. They have no control over their own thoughts or lives. Only for a brief time in each person’s life, during childhood, he is not a slave. For Will, his time of freedom is about to end, unless he can escape to the White Mountains, where the possibility of freedom still exists.
