Description

In a world where time is of the essence, Phileas Fogg embarks on an extraordinary adventure that will take him around the globe in just eighty days. A man of precision and routine, Fogg's life is upended when he wagers a staggering sum with his fellow club members, daring to prove that travel can be conquered within a mere fraction of a year. With his loyal servant Passepartout by his side, they traverse continents and face countless challenges, from dodging a relentless detective to braving the elements.

As they journey through bustling cities and remote landscapes, Fogg's stoic demeanor is tested, revealing layers of humanity and determination along the way. The essence of exploration, perseverance, and the spirit of adventure sets the tone, reminding readers that sometimes, the journey itself can be just as enriching as the destination. Each turn of the page draws one deeper into a world where every moment counts and where the thrill of discovery knows no bounds.

With all this sea talk I feel like I鈥檓 a seaologist! 馃槀Honestly I don鈥檛 know how to feel about it. It鈥檚 definitely not my favorite genre I only bought the book because it looked nice 馃槄I鈥檓 kind of conflicted. I know it鈥檚 a classic but I didn鈥檛 really enjoy it that much. Would I recommend it to someone? NoHowever while listening to the ending I weirdly felt sad. Sad for Captain Nemo. And M. Aronnax鈥檚 last words about him are filled with so much feeling for this man we鈥檒l never truly know anything about.
