Book excerpt: Like many of Jules Verne's works A Journey to the Centre of the Earth is an adventure novel (although, again like many of Verne's works, also classable within Sci-Fi and Fantasy genres) set in the author's own time, the 19th century. This particular masterpiece (for Jules Verne is credited with a multitude of such) features a Professor Lindenbrock and his bold nephew Axel who discover an aged manuscript showing, within an extinct volcano, the entrance to a series of caves and pathways leading to the centre of the Earth. Upon the attempt to undertake this Journey to the Centre of the Earth the pair and their guide, Hans, discover an enormous underground world filled with much plant and animal life which was, up until this discovery, presumed extinct. This is only the tip of the iceberg however, and from here the exciting expedition continues, featuring many an unexpected turn. Upon the conclusion to the inevitable thrill that is A Journey to the Centre of the Earth pick up more of Jules Verne's classics such as 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and From the Earth to the Moon, also available in the Forgotten Books collection.

This book was released on 2017-04-13 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey to the Center of the Earth is an 1864 science fiction novel by Jules Verne. The story involves German professor Otto Lidenbrock who believes there are volcanic tubes going toward the centre of the Earth. He, his nephew Axel, and their guide Hans descend into the Icelandic volcano Snæfellsjökull, encountering many adventures, including prehistoric animals and natural hazards, before eventually coming to the surface again in southern Italy, at the Stromboli volcano. The genre of subterranean fiction already existed long before Verne. However, the present book considerably added to its popularity and influenced later such writings. For example, Edgar Rice Burroughs explicitly acknowledged Verne's influence on his own Pellucidar series.

Download or read book Journey to the Centre of the Earth written by Jules Verne and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2008-06-12 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey to the Centre of the Earth has been consistently praised for its style and its vision of the world. It explores the prehistory of the globe, but can also be read as a psychological quest, for the journey itself is as important as arrival or discovery. Professor Lidenbrock and his nephew Axel travel across Iceland, and then down through an extinct crater towards a sunless sea where they enter a living past and are confronted with the origins of man. A classic of nineteenth-century French literature, the novel's distinctive combination of realism and Romanticism has marked figures as diverse as Sartre and Tournier, Mark Twain and Conan Doyle. This new translation of the complete text is faithful to the lyricism, verve, and humour of the original.

He was one of the most noticeable members of the Reform Club, though he seemed always to avoid attracting attention; an enigmatical personage, about whom little was known, except that he was a polished man of the world. People said that he resembled Byron-at least that his head was Byronic; but he was a bearded, tranquil Byron, who might live on a thousand years without growing old.

Download or read book The Pillars of the Earth written by Ken Follett and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2010-06-29 with total page 1009 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 New York Times Bestseller Oprah's Book Club Selection The “extraordinary . . . monumental masterpiece” (Booklist) that changed the course of Ken Follett’s already phenomenal career—and begins where its prequel, The Evening and the Morning, ended. “Follett risks all and comes out a clear winner,” extolled Publishers Weekly on the release of The Pillars of the Earth. A departure for the bestselling thriller writer, the historical epic stunned readers and critics alike with its ambitious scope and gripping humanity. Today, it stands as a testament to Follett’s unassailable command of the written word and to his universal appeal. The Pillars of the Earth tells the story of Philip, prior of Kingsbridge, a devout and resourceful monk driven to build the greatest Gothic cathedral the world has known . . . of Tom, the mason who becomes his architect—a man divided in his soul . . . of the beautiful, elusive Lady Aliena, haunted by a secret shame . . . and of a struggle between good and evil that will turn church against state and brother against brother. A spellbinding epic tale of ambition, anarchy, and absolute power set against the sprawling medieval canvas of twelfth-century England, this is Ken Follett’s historical masterpiece.
