'To go to the centre of the earth! Had I been listening to the mad speculations of a lunatic or to the scientific conclusions of a genius?'
When Axel deciphers an old parchment disclosing a secret passage to the centre of the earth, there is no stopping his determined and eccentric Uncle Lienbrock: they must set out without delay.
Guided by the grave and silent Hans, the two men are soon embarking on an incredible voyage through the unknown subterranean world - more astonishing, more terrifying and more perilous than any journey ever undertaken.
This classic story, written over a hundred years ago by the 'Father of Science Fiction,' is considered one of the finest of its genre.
