Summary
During the year 1866, ships of several nations spot a mysterious sea monster, which some suggest to be a giant narwhal. The United States government assembles an expedition in New York City to find and destroy the monster. Professor Pierre Aronnax, a French marine biologist and narrator of the story, who happens to be in New York at the time, receives a last-minute invitation to join the expedition which he accepts. Canadian whaler and master harpoonist Ned Land and Aronnax's faithful servant Conseil are also brought aboard.

An absolute pleasure
This is the first time I have had the privilege to listen to this amazing tale!
To imagine that this story is now 152 years old! Is astonishing!
And I have enjoyed it in the year of 2022!
What a legacy to leave behind!

Excellent reading!
I have to say as far as adventures go jules would not be my favourite to read. He is very scientific and tedious in his writing. I could never have enough patience to actually read his books. Even as a child. So listening was the best option. I have it in the background when I'm working. So it was perfect. I'm glad I finally know the story of captain Nemo I'd detail, even though read by someone else to me.

A bit of an anticlimax
This has aged surprisingly well but could probably do with retranslating. Lots of techy detail combined with some chacter development give it interest. There are lots of unanswered questions not the least being what happened at the end, which is very abrupt and unexplained.

Back to childhood
I read this book some 65 years ago in infant school, I was 7, still a wonderful story and the narrative is beautiful, it took me back to adventure and thrill’s at being with the crew of the Nautilus

Interesting
There is no doubt this is a great book, it would have been a revelation in its time.
To modern ears it does flow a little slowly and includes a lot of facts and information to support the story.
I still enjoyed it, but it may have less appeal now than it would have done at release!

Whale of a time
Despite the lack of whales, this was a very enjoyable listen, the narrator did a fintastic job of bringing this classic to life, I could feel the discernibly manly presence of Sir James Mason himself. Fingers crossed for a sequel.
