Jules Verne is one of the most exciting storytellers who ever lived, and so it is no surprise to me that the quality of the stories within this anthology are incredible. Still, I  have quite a few good things to say about this book that go above and beyond the actual stories.First off, the layout of this book is excellent. Not only is everything easy to find via the table of contents, which links to each story upon request, and even individual chapters within each story. On top of that, the artwork included was lovely, and gave my eyes a bit of a break from all the reading.Next, the included stories have obviously been hand-picked only to include the very best. The collection itself have everything one could want for a Jules Verne fan, including some more obscure short stories for those who may not know as much about the author as they would like.I would recommend this story to anyone who loves the work of Jules Verne, but also to anyone who likes the sci-fi genre. Too often today in science fiction, we get swept away in tales of space travel; Verne reminds us that there is still a dazzling amount of wonder left on Earth.
