A classic and staple of science fiction! Must read!! Really liked it even though I read it much later after reading a lot of more advanced science fiction books!

The cover implied more action than the book contained. This book wasn’t about fighting sea monsters, the real monsters are on land and in the sub. A lot of technical jargon and geographical knowledge that went over my head, but still some interesting characters and tense moments in exciting places.

Read in a 2 person book club with Jules Verne's biggest fan

But actually such a fan of this story, who knew? I've been sleeping on it for 28 years like a FOOL!

Long live ye olde complicated enigma that is mr moody Captain Nemo!! Would die for him. Prof. Aronnax is also a pal and clearly the hero of the story is Conseil every day. Ned is less annoying in the book than he is in the Disney adaptation but he's still scummy. That's my very articulate review of this classic novel.

PS I really want to go to Verne's masquerade parties?? kewl guy.
