Editorial Reviews

Review

Adventure novel by Jules Verne, published in French in three volumes as L'Ile mysterieuse in 1874 and included in his popular science-fiction series Voyages extraordinaires (1863-1910). The Mysterious Island follows the adventures of a group of castaways who use their survivalist savvy to build a functional community on an uncharted island. A hot-air balloon carrying five passengers and a dog escapes from Richmond, Va., during the American Civil War. It is blown off course and deposited near an obscure island. One of the castaways nearly dies after a skirmish with pirates; he is saved by the unexplained appearance of medicine after the pirates are unexpectedly routed. The group later discovers that their secret helper is the reclusive Captain Nemo (first introduced in Verne's Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea), who dies and is buried at sea in his submarine. The castaways are eventually saved by a passing ship. --Wordsworth Editions

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Novel, Nice Illustrations
Reviewed in the Netherlands on August 13, 2020
I enjoy reading this novel at nights. It helps me to relax and have a better sleep, specially after a stressful day. Sometimes it's hard to believe this book was actually written more than a hundred years ago considering how much modern technology are depicted in it. I also enjoy the quality of the papers used in the print and the illustrations. My only wish is. that, the font was slightly bigger.
