An ancient parchment bearing a mysterious cryptogram maps the most hazardous journey of Professor Lindenbrock's career.

With his nephew and a guide the Professor travels to Iceland. Their journey to the centre of the earth begins on the summit of a volcano and takes them down through secret passages, across a desolate underground sea populated by prehistoric marine monsters, on what may be a voyage of no return.

Few writers have conveyed the sheer excitement of exploration and discovery so grippingly as Jules Verne. The great science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke wrote: "The reason Verne is still read by millions today is simply that he was one of the best storytellers who have ever lived; and Journey to the Centre of the Earth is particularly flawless specimen of his art."

Journey to the center of the Earth

É um bom livro para o passar o tempo. Apesar de faltar detalhes nas descrições, a escrita e a história não bem agradáveis, fazendo com que o leitor sinta os pontos levantados pelo autor.
A leitura em inglês é bem leve. Ótimo instrumento para treinar o vocábulo.
