Journey to the centre of the Earth: New translation by Laurent Paul Sueur

Journey to the Center of the Earth. After decoding a piece of paper he found in an old book, Professor Lidenbrock decides to undertake a Journey to the Center of the Earth with his nephew Axel and an Icelandic guide named Hans. After descending into the crater of an Icelandic volcano (Mount Snaefell), they set off into the bowels of the Earth, encountering many strange phenomena and great dangers. Since they are courageous and intelligent, they finally find a path to the other side of planet Earth. Actually, where there's a will there's a way Journey to Empycrist II. In the immensity of the universe, there is the Earth: a blue crystal turning black. In the vastness of the Creation, there is Empycrist II: the illusion of Paradise on Earth. Between them, man, this strange creature, is about to destroy the first, what compels him to go to the second in order to survive. Five brilliant scientists go to this planet and, at the same time, understand, through a journey into their own human nature, that the survival of mankind is not a problem of geography. If madness leads to barbarity, reason leads to humanity. Reaching a higher level of consciousness, they discover the aim of the universe and the role of man in the Creation. Reader, follow them to Empycrist: you will see you in the mirror of truth...
