The War of the Worlds: A soothing reading for sleep and relaxation

Drift into a dreamlike state with The War of the Worlds, the visionary sci-fi classic by H.G. Wells, brought to life by the calming voice of Andrew Bond and produced by Slumber Studios.

If a restless mind or lingering stress is keeping you awake, this soothing audiobook is crafted to ease you into a deep, restful sleep, while gently transporting you to another world.

Close your eyes and let the steady rhythm of Andrew Bond’s narration carry you into the mysterious English countryside, where strange lights in the sky signal the arrival of something unknown… something beyond our world. Follow the journey of an unnamed narrator as he witnesses the astonishing arrival of Martian cylinders and the surreal unfolding of an otherworldly invasion.

Rather than shock or suspense, this version is designed for a peaceful night's rest. Wells’ poetic language, paired with gentle music and slow, thoughtful narration, becomes a meditative experience—a soft backdrop for your imagination as you prepare to drift off.

At Slumber Studios, all of our audiobooks are edited, produced and narrated to help you relax and fall asleep. Along with calming music in the background, we also lightly edit the books. We keep the plotlines, protagonists and antagonists, and moments of tension, but we remove anything that may be startling or upsetting, to ensure you always get a good night's rest.

If you're seeking a tranquil way to end your day, The War of the Worlds offers the perfect escape. Just press play, get comfortable, and let Andrew’s soothing voice guide you gently into a universe of wonder and sleep.
