A friend had a stack of Jules Verne sitting around so I picked them up for a read. Interesting only for the differences in assumptions about the world and class interactions that bleed through the pages of a book written a long time ago.

Mysterious Island was the best of the 5-6 I read from Verne but they were all weak. A 10-year-old could write more interesting material these days.
