Күн бұрын

[Part 1 of 3] Luke reads extracts from The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells. This is a classic bit of science fiction writing from the Victorian era, with some thrilling passages and scary descriptions. It’s one of my favourite books of all time and I hope you enjoy it too and learn some English from it.

Mam, you're the best teacher in the whole world. I've learned a lot in the last months listening to your podcast. I found your channel here and then I went to Spotify and actually I'm at the episode 130 and I'll listen all of them. It's the most enjoyable podcast I've ever heard. Thanks for your job, Luke.

I'm very glad you've chosen that particular author to read - I've got one of his books and as sci-fi is not my ultimate genre I couldn't make myself read "The time machine". Now I've got to know a bit of his style and possibly it may encourage me to reach for it. Thanks again for your work! :)
