Early hardcover publication, unknown year.

A Journey to the Center of the Earth, also known as A Journey to the Interior of the Earth, is a pioneer science fiction adventure novel written by Jules Verne and published in 1864. It chronicles the voyage of a team of scientific explorers who are trying to delve deeper into the earth than anyone has before.

Personal

I read this book to better familiarize myself with early science fiction. I finished it in 2015, and found it to be meh.

Status

This book is in the public domain. I don't own a physical copy, but have listened to an audio book recording.

Review

I found this to be quite dry. Also, since modern science has long since shown the entire story to be impossible, it requires a great suspension of disbelief to accept.
