Several warships have been involved in strange accidents at sea, and Professor Aronnax is dispatched to investigate sightings of a peculiar kind of monster described by survivors. Is it a whale, or possibly a narwhal? The Professor's theories have to be hastily revised when, after their ship founders, he finds himself inside a giant submarine and meets the bizarre Captain Nemo.What are the crew of the Nautilus trying to achieve? Will the Professor escape? Jules Verne's sci-fi adventure is a gripping read, full of authentic scientific knowledge, which predicted the invention of powered submarines a quarter of a century before they become a reality.
