About this book

Five prisoners escape the American Civil War by balloon and are marooned on an uncharted Pacific island, where their ingenuity, science, and cooperation slowly transform wilderness into a thriving home. As they build tools, tame the land, and unravel the island's mysteries, an unseen guardian seems to watch over them—leading to a connection with one of Verne's most famous characters. Blending survival adventure with the optimism of invention, it is a grand celebration of human knowledge and resourcefulness. A satisfying, sweeping companion to Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, it remains one of Verne's most beloved and ambitious novels.
