20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, by Jules Verne, was published in 1869. A mysterious sea monster is attacking shipping, and Arronax, a scientist, joins an expedition to find and destroy the monster. Instead, he becomes a prisoner of proud and ruthless Captain Nemo, captain of the amazing submarine, The Nautilus. This title is part of a wonderful series that offers a quick way into a range of exciting stories. Fast-moving and accessible, each story is a shortened, dramatically illustrated version of the classic novel, which loses none of the strength and flavour of the original. This ELT edition of the series is available for the first time with an accompanying audio CD and has a full glossary at the back of the book.
