Publisher's Summary

"Today is Wednesday 2nd October. If I am back in this very room in the Reform Club on Saturday 21st December by eight forty-five in the evening, I win."

Phileas Fogg bets £20,000 that he can go round the world in eighty days--a huge sum of money in 1872, worth more than a million pounds today. When he sets off on his amazing journey with his clever servant, Passepartout, they cannot afford the slightest delay.

Will the two travellers have time to help Princess Aouda when the brave and beautiful young woman is threatened with a cruel fate? Detective Fix believes that Mr. Fogg is a bank robber and plans to arrest him. Will that be the end of Phileas Fogg’s chance to save his fortune?

Missing the adventure

I never like abridged audiobooks, as you loose so much of the content of the story. This one especially seemed to jump quite dramatically from one story to the other with no details of what happened. They see the girl ready for burial and suddenly, they've saved her and without much detail. There is no emotion.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
