Story
In 1866, sightings of a legendary sea monster prompt a daring expedition out of New York City. Professor Pierre Aronnax, his servant Conseil, and whaler Ned Land are among the crew of the United States Navy frigate Abraham Lincoln. Though they are fearless, nothing prepares them for the "creature" itself - the Nautilus - a powerful, destructive submarine years ahead of its time. At the helm of the vessel is the brilliant Captain Nemo, who pulls the men deep into the wonders of the seas and the dark depths of his mind.

Story
Initially published in 1863, Five Weeks in a Balloon was the first novel in what would become the author's Extraordinary Voyages series. It tells the tale of a 4,000-mile balloon trip over the mysterious continent of Africa, a trip that wouldn't actually take place until well into the next century. Fusing adventure, comedy, and science fiction, Five Weeks has all the key ingredients of classic Verne: sly humor and cheeky characters, an innovative scientific invention, a tangled plot that's full of suspense and surprise, and visions of an unknown realm.

Classics, But Hours of Scientific Exposition.
These classic stories, written by a celebrated and time-honored author are extremely wordy, and VERY heavy on scientific exposition. The stories themselves containing only thematic elements would hardly consist of more than one hundred pages each. However, with the reams and reams of scientific data and historical information, the stories drag on for many thousands of pages. I appreciate the knowledge, research, and effort that went into these stories, but there is a line that must be drawn at some point. The narration is adequate, but without much distinction between characters voices, it’s a little hard to follow at times. Overall, a good value for anyone that want to pad their list of classical literature.

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.

Great Collection of Classics for Prolonged Reading
I love that this audiobook contains three classic stories in one. The audiobook provides nearly two day’s worth of content, making it an excellent option for prolonged listening. It is perfect for road trips, daily commuting, or an evening walk or hike. A collection like this is what audiobooks are made for because it allows you to move through it over time and at different paces depending on your needs and abilities.
The stories are very descriptive, and it is easy to create your own imagery from the narration. The narrator brings the stories to life and even changes his voice as he portrays various characters. This book is also an excellent option for children who might not be at this reading level but can understand most of the story. It gives them the opportunity to develop their imagination and vocabulary, all in one. Moreover, it would be a great book to listen to together as a family. Since these stories are classics, there is something for everyone in the family. Younger children listen to it for the first time, while older children and adults hear the stories from a different perspective. It is a great collection of classic stories, and I would recommend the Jules Verne Collection!

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

Jules Verne Collection
I’ve always enjoyed Jules Verne’s work, and this audiobook presents the books well. The narrator’s performance is very clear and well-articulated, though a bit monotone, and I would have appreciated a bit more variety in the characters voices.
As a side note: Verne does enjoy his long scientific descriptions and supply lists. As a biologist I appreciate them, but as a reader it can drag a bit.
I received a free Audible copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Nautilus Adventure or Essay
I love these stories but unfortunately here they are read with what comes across as a total disconnect from the story being read. The narrator sounds like he is reading a bus timetable. Unfortunately that carries the same feeling over to the listener.
Edit: Come the third story, "Around The World In 80 Days" the narrator comes alive. His voice, pacing and tone seem to fit this story much better than the previous two. This one is much more special.
Audio quality is good but occasionally sibilance or a strange mild distortion creeps in. (I'm not talking about the narrator's own way of saying 's', this is in addition to that. Disappointed.

Great stories but awful narration
brilliant stories but marred by terrible narration
the narrator constantly hisses through his teeth, reads like he is narrating a technical manual and does not pronounce places names properly. Saville Row, Sydenham, Marylebone, and Cromarty are constantly mispronounced. this is lazy narration and could not be bothered to research before reading
obviously just collecting a pay cheque
