"20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" by Jules Verne

"20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" by Jules Verne

book review by Riley Burnham 3/1/2024

it's good(!)

inspired by a friend to read this, i cranked that audiobook version to 1.7x & set voyage

the story is extremely popular [translated from French, apparently among the most translated works in history!], & i now see why so:

a tale of men overboard, rescued by a submarine, & taken on a fantastic voyage a DISTANCE of around 20,000 leagues or so [i was thinking depth...]

here we get Atlantean ruins, South Pole, a bit about history, & lots of adventure
