What if 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea wasn’t fiction and Captain Nemo’s tech was so advanced we wouldn’t understand it today?

I didn’t really get the violent ending of the original story, so I appreciated this reimagining of the story that made more sense to me. The story talks a lot about processing grief through the tragedies the main character faces. Also touches on reconciling with a family member you don’t trust anymore.

Nie pamiętam, kiedy ostatnio przeczytałam tak dobrą książkę. Ocena jest dla mnie poza skalą.
Książki Riordana stały się dla mnie od pewnego momentu comfort readem - nie wzbudzały we mnie większych emocji, ale nadal lubiłam jego twórczość.
Ta weszła na inny poziom. Nie znałam takiej jego twórczości. Nawet porównując do PJ i OH, uważam że to jest dzieło na poziomie o wiele wyższym pod wieloma względami.
Nie wiem, czy obiektywnie jest taka wspaniała. Ale trafiła we mnie najgłębiej, jak mogła. Wzruszalam się kilka razy, tą recenzje świeżo po zakończeniu pisze także ze łzami w oczach. Najlepsza książka, jaka przeczytałam w tym roku.

If you've loved any of Rick Riordan's previous books such as the Percy Jackson series then you're going to love his take on Jules Verne's 20,000 Leagues under the Sea.
