Omtale

Jules Verne, often hailed as the "Father of Science Fiction," was a 19th-century French author whose imaginative works have left an indelible mark on literature and popular culture. Born in 1828 in Nantes, Verne displayed a fascination with travel and exploration from a young age, themes that would later dominate his writing. His novels often combined scientific speculation with adventure, predicting technological advancements long before they became reality.

Verne's most famous works, including Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, Journey to the Center of the Earth, and Around the World in Eighty Days, are part of his Voyages Extraordinaires series. These novels not only showcased his visionary ideas-such as submarines, space travel, and deep-sea exploration-but also captured the spirit of 19th-century discovery and innovation. Verne's meticulous research and attention to scientific detail set his stories apart, making them both thrilling adventures and plausible forecasts of the future.

His influence stretches far beyond literature, inspiring generations of scientists, explorers, and dreamers. Verne's unique ability to merge entertainment with education cemented his place as a cornerstone of science fiction and adventure writing, and his legacy continues to inspire a sense of wonder about the world and the universe beyond.

The volume includes Part Two of "Marooned"
