Book excerpt: This discounted ebundle of Jules Verne novels includes: Journey to the Center of the Earth, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Around the World in Eighty Days “The reason Verne is still read by millions today is simply that he was one of the best storytellers who ever lived." --Arthur C. Clarke Journey to the Center of the Earth: A group of scientist lead by professor Otto Lidenbrock discover an ancient message and must learn the truth. Their adventures lead them down the cone of an arctic volcano and into... a realm of awesome mystery, weird beauty--and deadly peril. Where vast caverns and endless mazes lead to an underground ocean, living fire, and prehistoric monsters, and more. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea: This classic adventure follows Captain Nemo on his quest for knowledge and revenge, as told by the men he takes prisoner aboard his impossible vessel, the Nautilus. Around the World in Eighty Days tells the story of Phileas Fogg, a wealthy, solitary man with regular habits, who fires his former butler for getting wrong the temperature of his shaving water. He hires Passepartout as a replacement. Later that day he gets involved in an argument over an article in the Daily Telegraph, stating that with the opening of a new railway in India, it is now possible to travel around the world in eighty days. The exciting, adventure of Fogg and Passepartout will entertain modern readers as much as it did the Victorians. All editions are complete and unabridged, and feature Introductions and Afterwords.

Jules Verne is considered the "Father of Science Fiction" because of the power of this--his most famous novel. "The year 1866 was signalised by a remarkable incident, a mysterious and puzzling phenomenon, which doubtless no one has yet forgotten. Not to mention rumours which agitated the maritime population and excited the public mind, even in the interior of continents, seafaring men were particularly excited. Merchants, common sailors, captains of vessels, skippers, both of Europe and America, naval officers of all countries, and the Goverments of several States on two continents, were deeply interested in the matter. For some time past vessels had been met by 'an enormous thing,' a long object, spindle-shaped, occationally phosphorescent, and infinitely larger and more rapid in its movements than a whale." It is this "something" that Professor Aronnaz sets out to encounter--and thus begins the most incredible underwater journey ever. From Atlantis to the South Pole, the reader is taken through dangers, surprises, and the unsurpassed majesty of the marine world.

His goal: To create a new, superior race of beings! His legacy, however, would prove to be a nightmare beyond comprehension... The Invisible Man: It began with a quiet country inn--and a mysterious stranger, his features masked by gloves, dark glasses, and bandages that completely covered his head. Then came weird noises, the disembodied ravings, the phantom robberies, the haunted furniture...The violence...The rampages...The killing. An obscure scientist named Griffin had found a way to turn skin, flesh, blood and bones invisible--and tried the formula on himself. He could go anywhere; spy; steal; menace anyone. The Invisible Man had only two problems. He couldn't turn visible again. And he had gone quite murderously insane. All editions are complete and unabridged, and feature Introductions and Afterwords.

Download or read book Wolf Hall Bring Up the Bodies PBS Masterpiece E Book Bundle written by Hilary Mantel and published by Picador. This book was released on 2015-03-17 with total page 1265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winners of the Man Booker Prize and hugely successful stage plays in London's West End and on Broadway, Wolf Hall and Bring Up the Bodies bring history to life for a whole new audience having now been adapted into a six-part television series by the BBC and PBS Masterpiece. Hilary Mantel's Thomas Cromwell novels are the most formidable literary achievements of recent times. Wolf Hall begins in England in 1527. England is a heartbeat from disaster. If the king dies without a male heir, the country could be destroyed by civil war. Henry VIII wants to annul his marriage of twenty years and marry Anne Boleyn. The pope and most of Europe oppose him. Into this impasse steps Thomas Cromwell: a wholly original man, a charmer and a bully, both idealist and opportunist, master of deadly intrigue, and implacable in his ambition. Bring Up the Bodies unlocks the darkly glittering court of Henry VIII, where Thomas Cromwell is now chief minister. Henry is disenchanted with Anne Boleyn and has fixed his eye on the demure Jane Seymour. Anne has failed to give England an heir and rumors of her infidelity creep through the court. Over a few terrifying weeks, to dislodge her from her throne, Cromwell ensnares Anne in a web of conspiracy—acting to save his life, serve his king and secure his position. But from the bloody theater of the queen's final days, no one will emerge unscathed.

Attired in his priestly robes, he was about to proceed to the altar, when a man entered the sacristy, at once joyous and frightened. He was a sailor of some sixty years, but still vigorous and sturdy, with, an open, honest countenance. "Monsieur the cure," said he, "stop a moment, if you please." "What do you want so early in the morning, Jean Cornbutte?" asked the cure. "What do I want? Why, to embrace you in my arms, i' faith!""
