20000 Leagues Under the Sea

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. In 1866 ships across the world's oceans begin reporting a vast luminous object faster than any vessel afloat. The United States sends a frigate to hunt it, with Professor Pierre Aronnax of the Paris Museum aboard, his servant Conseil, and the Canadian harpooner Ned Land.

They find it. It is not a narwhal. Thrown into the sea when their ship is rammed, the three men are taken aboard a submarine vessel of impossible sophistication and told they will never be permitted to leave, because its commander has severed every tie with the world above.

Captain Nemo shows them coral forests and the ruins of Atlantis, hunts through underwater kelp beds, walks the wreck of a ship he will not name, and drives the Nautilus under the Antarctic ice and into the tentacles of giant squid. He is generous, cultivated, and grieving, and he is capable of things his guests would rather not have witnessed.

First published in 1870, Jules Verne's masterpiece is the founding novel of undersea adventure and one of the most influential works of science fiction ever written. This unabridged audiobook edition presents the complete original text.
