Description

The castaways of Mysterious Island press toward answers: who has been helping them, and what power moves under the rock. Strange aid unravels into a secret benefactor, while the island itself turns hostile and volcanic fire threatens the home they built. Verne?s closing adventure of ingenuity and nerve: science, suspense, and the cost of survival when nature stops playing fair. Spoken as action with wonder still in the air.

Author

Jules Verne (1828–1905) made curiosity feel like a form of travel. Under the sea, into the earth, around the world in a wager: the marvellous arrives with a logbook. Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas is the cold thrill of a closed world moving through a larger one; Around the World in Eighty Days is speed, manners, and a clock that will not forgive. The books remain among the most companionable ever written for the restless.
