Journey to the Centre of the Earth

By: Jules Verne
Genre: Science Fiction

This is a popular title by the father of modern sci-fi. I read this one on the flight from Vancouver to Hong Kong, on my way to South Africa. I believe it was an abridged version. Being a budding geophysicist, I enjoyed the imaginative prose used by Verne to describe his idea of what is inside this planet of ours. This is a real page turner... you follow the exciting, perilous and often desperate adventures of Professor Lindenbrock, his newphew, and their guide from England, to Iceland, then through a crater into the vast seas and underground caverns of the planet Earth, back up to the surface!
