great book / lousy ebook ^ downloaded the book and immediately started to suffer from kindle freeze. it completely locked up my kindle. took a lot of effort to get back in but as soon as i deleted the book kindle performance was back to normal. other reviews dont metion this problem so im mystified.
Free kindle version is solid ^ While the story does drag from time to time, as you read paragraphs about the genus species etc of the plans and animals that the protagonist sees, this is still a totally awesome vivid romp. It feels right at home with its great-grand-children novels in the steam-punk genre. The free kindle version is GREAT because you can look up all the random mollusks and make sure that they are ... random mollusks and nothing more sinister. The conversion to kindle has nearly no problems. The only thing that is missing is the lb symbol (or $) for some of the discussions on the value of random things.
If you have a kindle grab it.
Revisiting my youth ^ Like most of us, I read '20,000 Leagues' as a young man. Reading it again refreshed not only my memory of the book, but also revived my memory of adventure, challenge, excitement, and the wonder and possibilities of the unknown. Verne hit the mark with just the right blend of science and mystery. Kept me as enthralled the second time around as it did those many years ago when as a young man I couldn't put it down.
wonderful amazing awsome ^ This book might have been the best book I have ever read.Very adventerous.BEST BOOK EVER!
Shows the beauty and danger of the ocean. ^ an AMAZING book! I read this in 5th grade (not recomended for students that age, voc. difficult) and scince that age, I have wanted to become an oceanographer scince. You will NEVER look at the ocean the same again!
