During the American Civil War, five Northern prisoners of war escape by hijacking a hydrogen-filled observation balloon during the Siege of Richmond, Virginia. The escapees crash-land on a mysterious volcanic island in the Southern Pacific Ocean. Throughout their stay, they experience a series of mysterious events, including the unexplained appearance of supplies and miraculous rescues. The island holds many secrets, and as the colonists face various challenges, they uncover surprising truths about their mysterious benefactor and the island itself.


The Mysterious Island is a significant novel by Jules Verne that highlights his imaginative storytelling and scientific foresight. Serving as a crossover sequel to Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and In Search of the Castaways, this novel diverges from their themes, exploring survival and ingenuity. Inspired by classic tales like Robinson Crusoe and The Swiss Family Robinson, Verne's work influenced the adventure genre. The Mysterious Island remains a pivotal piece in Verne's oeuvre, showcasing his ability to weave together science fiction and adventure.


This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket.
