‘Science, my boy, is made up of mistakes, but they are mistakes which it is useful to make because they lead little by little to the truth.’

In a thrilling adventure follow the intrepid Professor Otto Lidenbrock, his young nephew Axel, and their Icelandic guide Hans Bjelke on an extraordinary expedition into the depths of the Earth itself, to explore the world beneath our feet.

Inspired by an ancient manuscript, Professor Lidenbrock believes that a passage to the Earth’s core exists within a volcano in Iceland. The trio descends into the unknown, facing treacherous landscapes, underground seas, and encounters with prehistoric creatures.

Their adventures spark an imagination and curiosity for the unknown, making the reader wonder about the endless possibilities that lie beyond the realms visible to us.
