I read a much abridged version of this as a kid but never the whole thing, and I'm glad to have finally read it. It was kind of historically fascinating, and I found Axel a really interesting and unexpected narrator. I think I was expecting something different from the tone, so that was really compelling for me.

This one just doesn't have the same magic as Twenty Thousand Leagues. The illustrations in this book are beautiful though.
