About this book

"Dont you worry son. Whatever it is thats been killing the sailors I will kill it." In this science-fiction classic - reimagined by Dave Eggers in modern times and from the point of view of the fourteen-year-old Consuelo - the famous oceanographer Pierre Arronax sets sail from New York to hunt down a mysterious sea-monster which has been terrorizing the oceans wrecking ship after ship and causing countless deaths. But they discover an even stranger truth: the "sea-monster" is in fact a submarine captained by Nemo who is living in self-imposed exile in international waters. Consuelo and Arronax join Nemo on the submarine and so begin their exciting adventures ... Dave Eggers says of the series: "I couldnt be prouder to be a part of it. Ever since Alessandro conceived this idea I thought it was brilliant. The editions that theyve complied have been lushly illustrated and elegantly designed."
