clark1532 's review for:
20000 Leagues Under the Sea
by Jules Verne
There were things about this book I really liked. It is a cross between a naturalist journal, and adventure story, with some engineering thrown in. However the adventure parts weren't that exciting, and I often had to re-listen to parts, as I found my mind wandering. It's very creative, especially for the time. Their constant evaluation of what different natural elements and creatures were "worth" monetarily without any regard to the inherent worth of the creatures themselves was a bit grating, especially as it became clear it was a recurring theme in the story. For how famous this book is, I'd give it a solid meh.
