BLURB: War of the Wordls: A Scrambled Translation of H.G. Wells’ War of the Worlds

You can raed tihs senetnce, eevn thgouh the wrdos are scrbamled. Your brain can read common words even if only the first and last letters are in their proper places. Test this ability for yourself with War of the Wordls – an entire novel of scrambled words. War of the Wordls tells the story of Martian invaders who land in late nineteenth-century Britain. With visionary references to space travel, lasers, robots, and other innovation, H.G. Wells’ story is as captivating as ever. In this edition, the text looks like gibberish, but if you read English well, it reads like any other book. Go ahead – try it. Amaze yourself and impress your friends. It’s fun!

Not the blurb per se, so much as the entire premise…
