Publisher's 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.

I see why it's a classic
this book is very dry and has lots of technical details. It does slow it down, however the story of Adventure in the unknown under the sea, along with what people imagined the world to be over a hundred years ago, it's very inspiring to listen to.

Better than the movies
Jules Verne was way ahead of his time.
I'm glad I took the time to listen to the actual book, instead of rely on the movies I have seen.
Great listen.

Not that good
For something that is treated a classic, its very much overrated. The story is really not that intriguing although it might have stimulated the imagination of people back when it was written.

A story worth experiencing
A great journey around the world in a magical way of the times. Captain Nemo is as grand of a character as you’ll ever find.

A wonderful read for science buffs
A near perfect blend of fact and fiction that reels readers in to an immersive world and storyline. Excellent narration.

Enjoyable to listen to
I enjoyed listening to this book while reading my physical copy. The story is classic, and it’s interesting reading it with a modern lens. The narrator reads slowly and clearly, so I actually preferred to listen at 1.45 speed. My biggest hang up/frustration/ick though that threw me off was the narrator’s voice choice for Ned Land. Ned is meant to be Quebecois (French Canadian), and while I understand that may not be an accent someone would want to attempt, even just a generic Canadian accent would have been more acceptable than a grating, brash, old-timey, East coast American accent. So if you’re a stickler for vocal performances and accents, this might not be the listen for you.
