A review by llamasandbooks
From the Earth to the Moon by Jules Verne

3.0

This story is extremely impressive for its time, which is a huge part of why I'm being generous and rating this 3 stars. I love scifi, but this leaned a little too heavily into the science aspect than I personally enjoy, and the complex terminology truthfully hindered my enjoyment of the story. The overall concept of this story was still interesting regardless though. I may not have understood everything, but it was nice seeing the journey from the overall plan to the actual execution.

Originally I planned to stop after reading this first story, but my ebook apparently includes the sequel (and I spent months being close to finishing this without realizing because of that) so I'll probably continue on but at a slower pace so I don't overwhelm myself again. I'm hoping that the continuation is a bit more enjoyable and not just pure science though.
