- The Mysterious Island (Wordsworth Classics)

All Vern books are a great read. I highly recommend the whole series. I enjoy a good book that takes me elsewhere in my head. The book was delivered in excellent condition and packaged good. Recommend these book.

We just finished the book journey to the center of the earth so we decided to buy this one by the same writer, we read 16 chapters so far and the book is so far a get read, I would say is a middle schooler and older sort of book.

We got this one too for our boy . I told him that I had read it many time when i was his age, and that it made a big impact in choosing career. His siblings are also excited to read it when i told them that the Nautilus & Capt Nemo are in the book. I also told them that there is a good movie they can can watch.

I am quite a fan of Jules Verne, and have read of course 20,000 leaques under the city and several others. For some reason never came around to The Mysterious Island. Picked it up at a friends house and started reading and realized it is quite captivating. So, I ordered the paperback from Amazon and now reading it. So far quite good, I am also curious to see the style of writing. It definitely has an outdated feel to it, but that helps to take one back to the past, and get some insight into the social ideas in the 1800s. I am looking forward to reading through this book, I am sure it will be full of surprises and just a very satisfying read experience. Certainly different from contemporary fiction. Jules Verne knew how to create interesting situations with challenging solutions from his characters, that keeps one turning the pages for more.

Great story, book quality for price is great

I bought these for my daughters because they were recommended by someone but they didn’t even wanna read them! I feel like classic novels are good education for young minds. Came in great paperback condition!

Perhaps the best of the principal works of Verne. The community that the marooned men create is both unique and inspiring. They are rich in talent, strong in their sense of community, and resilient. It is a classic in the way that they build a life on this remote and interesting island. And of course there is mystery..of the most remarkable kind! A terrific read for teens and beyond.

A classic. What can you say? Verne was many years ahead of his time. I read this book when I was a kid and loved it; now I'm passing it on to my grandkids. This was probably my favorite book as a kid, at least until I discovered Tolkein and Feist. Still a great read and I enjoy re-reading it periodically.

The book is fantastic, must read for those who enjoy adventure and the works of Jules Verne. The copy is a very nice copy, although it is soft meaning the cover isnt very sturdy and the the book can bend easily. But that doesnt take away from the fact that its a great novel.
