Let your imagination guide you into a wondrous inner realm and beyond in Jules Verne’s A Journey to the Centre of the Earth, unabridged and illustrated in this beautiful new edition. Fueled by his vast hunger for knowledge, Dr. Otto Lidenbrock is an eccentric Victorian explorer like no other. One day, his love for research and old manuscripts presents him with an irresistible opportunity – because hidden between the pages of an old dusty Icelandic tome, Dr. Otto and his skeptical nephew Alex discover a coded note that’s about to change their quiet life forever. The text suggests that the center of the earth is not a fiery ball of flame, but a hidden world of wonders and prehistoric creatures. But the way to the dormant volcano's crater that leads there is treacherous, and only a narrow window of access opens up each year. Determined not to stop until they reach their destination, Dr. Otto and his nephew Alex convince a local guide to help them travel to the center of the volcano. But as the group explore the deep caverns and all the amazing lifeforms found in the prehistoric land they discover, it’s only through pure courage and determination that they’ll be able to survive.
