Axel y su tío, el testarudo profesor de mineralogía Otto Lidenbrock, descubren un misterioso pergamino entre las páginas de un libro antiguo. Detrás del extraño criptograma, que ha permanecido oculto durante siglos, se esconden las instrucciones de un sabio islandés para repetir su viaje al centro de la Tierra.
De este hallazgo nace una expedición en la que, junto a Hans, un imperturbable guía, se embarcarán hacia las profundidades de nuestro planeta. Al adentrarse en las intrincadas galerías subterráneas, pronto comenzarán a comprender que el verdadero problema no será llegar al centro de la Tierra, sino el riesgo de quedarse atrapados allí para siempre...
Clásicos inolvidables para disfrutar, compartir y dejar volar la imaginación.ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Journey to the Center of the Earth is a classic 1864 science fiction novel by Jules Verne.
The story involves German professor Otto Lidenbrock who believes there are volcanic tubes going toward the centre of the Earth. He, his nephew Axel, and their guide Hans descend into the Icelandic volcano Snæfellsjökull, encountering many adventures, including prehistoric animals and natural hazards, before eventually coming to the surface again in southern Italy, at the Stromboli volcano.
From a scientific point of view, this story has not aged quite as well as other Verne stories, since most of his ideas about what the interior of the Earth contains have since been disproved, but it still manages to captivate audiences when regarded as a classic fantasy novel.
