spenstar 's review for:
The Mysterious Island
by Jules Verne
A fun read, but one which left me a bit longing at the end. Clearly written partially in homage to Defoe, and partially with the Verne-standard eye towards the future, this story took a bit to wind up. After some up disjointedness in the beginning, it really got going in the middle such that I was flipping pages for the entirety of this gloomy Sunday. All in all, a good read, but I much prefer Around the World in 80 Days.
