BEFORE SCIENCE FICTION, THERE WAS JULES VERNE In the late 19 Century, during a span of 42 years, Jules Verne wrote over 50 novels in the Voyages Extraordinaires collection. His style and subject matter shaped Science Fiction into the genre we now know. Verne led the way, and his amazing tales still delight us today.  The North American Jules Verne Society is pleased to present its first-ever anthology of short stories, written by a select group of modern authors, inspired by classics like Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas, Journey to the Center of the Earth, and Around the World in Eighty Days, as well as Verne’s many other works.  What secrets await a salvage team raising the Nautilus, and who else wants that submarine? What really happened when Nellie Bly met Jules Verne during her 1889 trip around the world? On the front lines of World War I, did a steam-powered mechanical elephant join the fray?  The Baltimore Gun Club wouldn’t try to alter Earth’s rotational speed-would they? What if your son recreated a thrilling chapter of 20,000 Leagues in your house? What is so odd, very odd, about a particular shop full of Vernian antiques?  Mysterious beings dwell at the center of the Earth, but might they take revenge on the surface? Verne’s spirit and imagination remain vibrant and relevant today. His voyages continue in Extraordinary Visions.
