When an unidentified "monster" threatens international shipping, French oceanographer Pierre Aronnax and his unflappable assistant Conseil join an expedition organized by the US Navy to hunt down and destroy the menace.

Jeden z nejúspěšnějších románů od průkopníků fantastické literatury Julese Verna. Legendární kniha sleduje osudy tří statečných mužů, které kapitán Nemo zachránil před smrtí a potom uvěznil ve své podmořské lodi Nautilus. Nemo na své lodi vybudoval dokonalou výzkumnou laboratoř a zároveň děsivý nástroj pomsty. Napínavý příběh doprovází líčení tajemných mořských hlubin, zprávy o rozvoji techniky a varování před nebezpečím zneužití výsledků vědeckého pokroku. Autorova bohatá fantazie se drží v mezích technické pravděpodobnosti a proto román působí i dnes velmi přesvědčivě.

Jules Verne is considered to be an important author in France and most of Europe, where he has had a wide influence on the literary avant-garde and on surrealism.

Thus, in the midst of this great sea, Captain Nemo's life was passing, even to his grave, which he had prepared in one of its deepest abysses.
