Jules Verne

Before space travel, there was the endless sky—embark on the aerial expedition of a lifetime where one man's mad scientific vision defies the boundaries of the known world!

In 1862, the brilliant and unflappable Dr. Samuel Ferguson shocked the Royal Geographical Society with an audacious proposition: he will cross the perilous, uncharted wilderness of the African continent from east to west. His vessel? A revolutionary hot-air balloon named the Victoria. Joined by his skeptical, sharpshooting friend Dick Kennedy, and his endlessly optimistic servant Joe, Ferguson launches into the stratosphere. Together, this intrepid trio must survive raging storms, treacherous environments, and hostile tribes as they soar over roaring rivers and scorching deserts in search of the fabled source of the Nile.
