Kinda wrinkle-in-time-ish, in the sense that it is largely about breaking free of the adult world mind control. Kinda Lord-of-the-Rings-ish, in the sense that most of the story is a journey taken by some of the characters, and the people and places they encounter. The characters are very lively and interesting, and the tripods are described in such chilling detail that I can still picture them (well, what they looked like in my mind) all these years later.
I was never much of a science fiction freak(ever, but especially not in elementary school) but somehow I latched on to this series and love it still. I recently found a VHS copy of the British TV series based on the books at a thrift store, and it's almost as good as the books.
