Aside from the title it shares, there is little to connect the third season of Howard Overman’s War Of The Worlds and that of its more famous namesake, The original novel by the godfather of British Science Fiction, H.G. Wells, and yet it doesn’t stop it from being a tale woven with greater sincerity and fierce drama than almost any adaption of the work, aside from the incredible Jeff Wayne musical extravaganza which is fast approaching its 50th anniversary.

All we are looking for is a connection, a reason to hold onto certain memories and recollections about our lives and those we hold dear to our lives. When that reason to have and hold is taken away in the blink of an eye, when Time reminds us with no quarter given, that all can be lost and shattered as easily as bones in an accident, then connection is frustrated and we have to make our own way, unguided and censured; the only companion is silence and it is one that is Louder than Bombs, more destructive than loneliness.
