if it weren't for the violent tempo changes and the slightly sparse character development, i'd have gone 5 stars. that said, i felt like an eighth grader as this expedition unfolded in ever more spectacular and mythical ways. i always enjoy reading books that have served as prototypes for so many other great reads.

I usually don't books like that, but this one was worth it.

A wonderfully written classic adventure! 

I loved the characters, the plot, and the non-stop adventure! Definitely a novel I would like my children to experience at the youngest age possible.

I am so happy I finally decided to read Jules Verne!

I wished the ending was better. Seemed kinda rushed like running off a cliff.
