Journey To The Centre Of The Earth

‘And whichsoever way thou goest, may fortune follow.’

One of Jules Verne’s most popular tales of the ‘Voyages Extraordinaires’ series, A Journey to the Centre of the Earth follows the travels of Professor Lidenbrock, a brilliant, if somewhat quick-tempered mineralogist, and his timid nephew, Alex. In an ancient manuscript, Lidenbrock finds a cryptic message written in runic. Cracking the code leads the duo to set out on a quest towards the literal centre of the earth, aided on the way by Hans Bjelke, an Icelandic hunter and guide. A thrilling adventure ensues in true ‘Verne’ style – science, mystery and clever twists all rolled into one.
