Around the World in 80 Days Audiobook

" As always, Jules Verne does excellent science fiction, albeit small in size. "

" Clever, witty writing. A bit predictable, but an amusing read nevertheless. "

" I read this when I was younger, and though it is a very good story, for some reason I remember thinking that it had been a lot more exciting. Still a good read though, and clever storyline. "

" Better than the other books he wrote. "

" Good fun following Mr. Fogg around the globe! "

" The only thing I thought was worse than the book was the movie adaptation... "

" YAY! I'm stingy on giving out 5 stars but this was a great book. I love the happy ending! It was just overall an exciting story of adventure and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. It kept me wondering what IN THE WORLD could happen next! (Pun intended!) "

" Fantastic adventure novel with an ending that will leave you in awe of the author's brilliance. "

" Good things live ,even after a long time since my childhood its a beautiful novel "

" I never read this in high school, actually I manage to skim or cliff notes most classics in english class My son asked me to read this with him and after about 30 pages of very descriptive language it settled into a nice action story. "

" LOVED this book! What a fantastic adventure and pretty funny too. "

" Was listening to it on tape and had to stop 7 chapters in. Was so boring I couldn't take it. I'll try reading it, but not anytime soon "

" Maybe i need to give it a second change. The movies i have seen all my life about this give me a fun idea of this adventure and the problems they would have to be sucessed. The reading was Ok but kinda boring sometimes. "

" Very enjoyable read! Yes, some parts are dated, but other than that it's an excellent adventure novel. "

" Usually I don't get into classics, but this book was different. Maybe it was the fact that it wasn't for class, or maybe it was just extremely well-written (probably the latter, but I loved every second I was reading it. "

" Well the science and stereotypes are a bit dated but overall a passable, tale about how transportation was during the second half of the 19th century. "

" It's an old book. Not much happens, the parts that could be really exciting are summarized very shortly. I expected it to be a little boring and I liked the story, so it was okay to read. Oh, and the book had pictures! Very nice. "

" Mit Mister Fogg um die Welt. Packend bis zur letzten Seite. "

" I should be embarrassed that this thin book took me more than a month to read - especially since I really did like it. I knew the basic story before I ever got into the book. I thought the book would be much more difficult a read (try Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea). An enjoyable read. "

" Fun book to read while travelling. "

" I have read this in the past and re-read it as an ebook on my phone. Despite adjusting settings to make it more reader friendly, i just do not like reading books electronically. It is not as satisfying. I did enjoy the story again, it is a fabulous read. "
