    About The Story of Captain Nemo

    “Don’t you worry, son. Whatever it is that’s been killing the sailors, I will kill it.”

    In this science-fiction classic – reimagined by Dave Eggers in modern times, and from the point of view of the fourteen-year-old Consuelo – the famous oceanographer Pierre Arronax sets sail from New York to hunt down a mysterious sea-monster which has been terrorizing the oceans, wrecking ship after ship and causing countless deaths. But they discover an even stranger truth: the “sea-monster” is in fact a submarine, captained by Nemo, who is living in self-imposed exile in international waters. Consuelo and Arronax join Nemo on the submarine, and so begin their exciting adventures …


    Dave Eggers says, of the series: “I couldn’t be prouder to be a part of it. Ever since Alessandro conceived this idea I thought it was brilliant. The editions that they’ve complied have been lushly illustrated and elegantly designed.”
