Voyage au centre de la Terre

In Hamburg, Professor Lidenbrock deciphers an old runic message: a sixteenth-century alchemist claims to have reached the centre of the Earth through the crater of an Icelandic volcano. He sets off at once with his nephew Axel, who would rather stay home with his fiancée, and Hans, a calm and tireless Icelandic guide. Underground, they cross endless galleries, an inner sea, forests of giant mushrooms and creatures from prehistoric times. An adventure told by Axel, with fear, humour and an unexpected return to the surface.
