A journey to the center of the earth / Jules Verne ; illustrations by Lars Hokanson ; afterword by James Hynes.

Verne, Jules, 1828-1905 (Author). Hokanson, Lars, (illustrator.).

Summary:

Originally published in French in 1864, Journey to the Center of the Earth tells the story of Professor Lidenbrock, his nephew, and a hired guide who, following the instructions of a medieval alchemist claiming to have found a passage to the center of the earth, travel deep into an Icelandic volcano. Deep in the earth, the dangers are beyond imaginable. They traverse subterranean oceans, have encounters with dinosaurs and other prehistoric beasts, and do so all in the spirit of adventure and discovery. Considered a classic in the science-fiction and fantasy genre, Jules Verne's epic novel is an enduring tale of man's desire to uncover the great unknowns of life and nature.-- Proviced by publisher.
