Fics like The Red Visitation

When cylinders fall from Mars onto Victorian England, Imperial London expects another enemy to conquer. Instead, the invasion destroys something far more fragile: certainty. Martian war machines annihilate the Army, while their alien presence drives respectable citizens into madness, ecstatic abandon and death. Yet beneath the collapsing Empire, London's forgotten poor discover unexpected freedom. Street urchins seize warehouses, workhouses are stormed, debts burn with the banks, and workers inherit abandoned factories. As the Martians succumb to earthly disease, revolution eclipses invasion. Dickensian grotesque, cosmic horror and political satire collide in a tale of class war, catastrophe and a city discovering that authority was only ever an arrangement.
