Here's the challenge... I'm listening to this with my teenage kids (I was able to get them interested because they loved the movie remake with the Rock) We are talking about it while running errands and at dinner. We are going to try and make something that the kids pick out from all the tools/ supplies/ gadgets they make in the story. My daughter wants to make bricks or pottery, my son, the bow and arrows. I challenge others to try the same experiment with your family. It's proven fantastic family time. 😁
Those are memories that are will last a lifetime for your children. I read that Verne wanted to write these books to inspire youth of era to study nature and the sciences apparently they are still doing their job.
Great book, I love it, very hilarious. Great voice from the reader. Thank you! When I was twelve these books were amazing adventures, but now that I have done a PhD in engineering, done some travel, and had a midlife crisis I can have a good laugh at every paragraph.
Yeah I think Mark's a great reader I've listened to him read this book like three Times Now mainly back in 2013 and here I am I'm going to listen to it again 10 years later
Thanks for posting. Jules Verne's science fiction was terrific, unique, and important. An important component of the development of the modern world through exploration and application of scientific knowledge in an interesting way by incorporating these into intriguing stories with different characters and their challenges.
Great job and your efforts are much appreciated. The heart that you have for doing what you do is all that matters, so even though the human condition exists among those that need to comment unappeciatively, they are everywhere and are irrelevant. Dont take it to heart as they cannot be see values that truly matter. Don't change anything! Keep it up my friend!
Pleasant fantasy, well narrated......... And our intrepid castaways all humble and devote got down on their knees and gave thanks to their creator who had blessed them with such abundance "Thanks Jules"
My thinking. In his mind, engineers are gods lol They know geology, all sorts of plants, they can buid everything and anything even from literally scratch, have a vast knowledge about everything, can navigate better than a sailor and so on. Haha This book seems to be Jules Verne just writing out stuff as he studies various topics like history (civil war), flora and fauna, astrology and so on and instead of making notes, he writes a book about it.
Great exercise for english non-speakers, I am only puzzled why they changed the name of Cyrus Smith to Harding. It's just a small detail perhaps, but the name Cyrus Smith was always iconic to me.
I wondered the same thing. I also noticed a few differences when following with my copy of the book. My guess is the wording has changed over the years from one edition to another.
In the original version of the book, written in French, the engineer.is Captain Cyprus Smith, not Harding. The first English language translation, by Anges Kingston in 1875, renamed Cyrus Smith as Cyrus Harding. The recent, excellent 2002 book edition with translation by Jordan Stump, restores the original Cyrus Smith name as Verne had written.
The story was great but the math for the grain of corn was very wrong. Corn comes in kernels and one alone produces 500 to 1800 kernels. Wheat grain produce 8 or more heads with 40 grains per head.
Haha. I haven't got to that part yet. But as I have had the fortune a very good and wide education in natural sciences, I can assure you almost everything in this book is very, very wrong 😁
Dose The Mysterious Island 🏝 Book 📖 said anything about Living Dinosaurs 🦖 Or Giant Animals like Giant Crab 🦀 Bee 🐝 Chicken 🐓 or Squid 🦑 in this Book 📖 by Jules Verne?
you might be thinking of the lost world by sir arthur conan doyle. (dinosaurs) or 20,000 leagues under the sea by jules verne. (giant squid and other sea creatures)

@@audiobookfull8 mark is my favorite reader he's such a great reader I've listened to him read this book like three times. this was back in 2013. I'm going to listen to it again. I am not a book reader at all. I hate reading. it hurts my eyes. But after listening to mark read this book several times I can't even watch any of the movies because they're so stupid. I got a better mental picture from mark reading it than I do from watching those dumb movies. Again mark is an awesome reader. Mark if you ever read this? thank you thank you

That's so lovely thing!!
I suggest a cast iron pan. used for camping. etc etc. They can keep it forever and "smell what the rock is cookin"!"
Great project! Thanks for being a good dad, the world needs more of them!
Though, I would strongly advise against eating random shellfish and plants that "must be edible".
Thank you for your hard work, this is great to have the classics available!

Any other recommendations? ❤
Eye's aren't what they used to be thanks for the excellent work god bless 😊
I read this book over 50 times ;)
It really is a great book I'm not even a book reader but I've listened to mark Read this book like three Times Now and this will probably be #4

Such a lovely island paradise!
Would be a shame if something....happened to it...
Thank you for your hard work! It’s great!
Great read, soothing voice. Very nice job.
The best way, for me, to 'read' a classic book!
Yeah I have multiple Sclerosis and from the multiple Sclerosis I have nystagmus and I have ADHD so very difficult to read paragraph anymore
Thank you
ty for the read
Jules Verne seems to have believed engineers could do anything.

Nobody has been more butchered in translation than Verne.
Which translation version is this one? Its my favorite
it is in English

I’ve always loved the book but this is not for me, sorry. It’s like listening to paint dry 🥱
Disagree I do.... it is a great effort and a great result. Not everything has to be ideal.
Some do things and others just sit around and complain.
Then exit out
very bad... really bad. this guy should work in tesco...away from books.
