Just amazing

I love Jules Verne and his stories alot. Jim D. Johnston was just fantastic at narrating this great collection of beloved classics. I'm really wanting to hear more of his work. My Favorite story is still Journey to the Center of the Earth but Jim made me love 20,000 Leagues a little more.

Great narrator

Great narrator for these classic Jules Verne tales. Sometimes an old book is a monotonous and droning listen. This narrator has the perfect tone and inflection. It seems authentic to the story but understandable with life.

An extraordinary collection of the classics

An underwater exploration with the secretive Captain Nemo, a journey into an icelandic volcano, sailing around the world with Phileas Fogg or hijacking a Confederate balloon. These are all worlds and situations you can visit through this Audiobook and immerse yourself in some of the most celebrated fiction books of the literary world.

A wonderful collection of four of the most famous books by legendary author and science-fiction pioneer, Jules Verne. This compilation includes the following titles: Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea, Journey to the Center of The Earth, Around The World in 80 Days, and The Mysterious Island.

These stories are brought to life through Mr. Jim D. Johnstons immaculate narration. His deep voice gives these timeless tales a feeling of antiquity which perfectly matches the tone used in the actual text. While listening to this audiobook collection I was transported into a world of adventure where I felt like I was living the story right next to the characters.

With 43 hours worth of material, this audiobook can take quite some time to finish. However it is well worth it as it includes four of Verne's most popular works all piled into a single playlist. I found listening to this collection especially rewarding while driving, its entertaining without distracting you too much and can turn even the most mundane of situations into one filled with excitement.

Classic

Four classic stories in one audiobook. The narrator did a great job bringing the stories to life. If you are a fan of Jules Verne, then this is a perfect way to experience his books. We listened to parts of this during a family road trip and it was a great listen.

I loved 3 of the 4

Twenty thousand leagues under the sea requires a world map, dictionary, and a book on nautical references and sea life. It just gets way to descriptive at times and losses you. But the other 3 were wonderful.

It's a great collection.

It is a great collection of stories, the narration was a little dry for me. I started then stopped quite a few times to get through the book, at 43 hours it takes a while. The stories are written for a time that gave you something to read for a long time, to entertain you. I enjoyed the stories very much.I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review
