Amazing book.
The author writes beautifully.
Missing a chapter!

By nickcool33
Seems good and well (and nice that it’s free). But, if I wouldn’t have been concurrently, listening to the audiobook, I wouldn’t have realized that part one, chapter 23 is entirely skipped in this book! Watch out for missing content!
Must read

By Goodman+
Jules Verne writes like a scientist, philosopher, historian and explorer. The movie made by Walt Disney does not capture what this book delivers.
The Book Is Good
