Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of Verne's most incredible compositions
Review: Readers who loved "Twenty Thousand Leagues Underwater" and "Around the World in Eighty Days" will certainly like this book. Full of excitement and adventure, with slight hints of humour and slivers of suspense. Recommended for readers of Conrad, Defoe, and Golding. If you don't want to buy it, borrow it at the nearest library. This book, along with several other Jules Vernes' books, are good for people with scientific interests.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best book!
Review: Hi. I'm 12 and I first read this book last year in a plane when I was going to a vacation in Japan. I bought this book because it sounded interesting and I have read other books from this author and heard that this one was just as good as the rest of Verne's book, and it was!! I truly enjoyed it and just had to read it over, and over again. It is very realistic and fun to read. I highly recommend this book to any one who wants to read a high quality sci-fi book!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pretty good book
Review: This book is reccomended for young adults and here is a review by one. Personally, I found the beginning fairly dull, but the book got really good later on.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I really liked this book!
Review: This story is about a journey to the center of the earth through a volcano and inside of the center of the earth there are three people. They get down there without food or water or guns. Uncle and Harry are finding Arns Saknussemm's initials "A.S. and they are going up through a volcano in a hot hole and find gas pouring out. They shoot from the mouth of a cannon. They landed on a mountain slope. I like the book so much because of lots of adventures.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Very interesting storyline - dissapointing end!
Review: Unlike the other people who reviewed this book, I thought that the end was too prompt, and rather uninteresting. I thought they would reach the center of the earth, but they don't. The description of the underground lake is very interesting, however, the book is ruined by such a prompt end.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome, best book I've ever read!
Review: Awesome book I would recommend it to anyone aged 9-99! It really is very well written and has a superb storyline!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An exhilirating adventure!
Review: This has got to be one of the best books I've ever read. Verne is so creative and imaginative, yet so descriptive, that you feel as if you really are there with the trio as they make their journey. I could not put this book down once I got it, and seriously recommend it to anybody who is willing to set aside some time to go on a real reading adventure. I'm 13, and boy am I glad I had the persistence to really look around for a book worth reading. This story is fantastic!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great!
Review: One of the best books ever written. If you don't love this book I will personally pay you the price value! (P.S. Check out the Holy Trinity School Web page!)

Summary: A wonderful story.
Review: A beautiful tale set against the backdrop of old Iceland, describing a professor attempting to lead a team through the heart of a volcano to the centre of the earth. If you can ignore the scientific realities and just enjoy a good read, you should love it! Nothing sophisticated, just good old-fashioned story-telling.
