Barnes & Noble Jules Verne: Seven Novels: ( Collectible Classics: Omnibus Edition) ( Leatherbound Classic Collection)

From the Barnes and Noble Classic Collection this book is stunning with much of Jules Vernes books included. Book quality is unquestionable with leather binding and gold edges to the pages but sadly the print is a little too small for me even with reading glasses - I had to rebuy it in another format and just keep this book for display purposes. Still a good value for money purchase and it looks stunning on the book shelfCons - small font

When this book arrived I was not disappointed. Right away I could see that book is sealed with cellophane wrapper. The edges of book are gold and feel good factor is there with this book. This item has a quality feel to it. The book is a present for a 8 year old girl and having read Jules Verne when I was a similar age I know that the stories here are very good.The VFM here is consistent with Amazon's competive pricing so no cause for complaint here.This book and its novels are priceless and any one looking for a present for someone young or older can not go wrong here.

Great Book. Though I agree with some other people that the book would be even greater with some classical illustrations to each story.Still, all my favourite Jules Verne stories are all combined in one book. The quality is perfect. I am glad I jumped on the chance to buy the book than the price was right.

Beautiful edition with an intro to the author's life. It includes Five Weeks in a Balloon, A Journey to the Centre of the Earth, From the Earth to the Moon, Round the Moon, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, Around the World in Eighty Days and The Misterios Island.Pages are thin without being bible thin. Good quality binding with nice details.

If, like me, you grew up with Jules Verne's books, this is a real treat for you. The book contains some of his most exciting titles; the man was a genius and his stories so much ahead of his time (literally and metaphorically). This is a lovely edition with a stunnng cover; admittedly it's not the easiest one to read as it is, let's face it, pretty fat and so not exactly one to carry around, but I till find it convenent to have an omnibus version rather than separate volumes as my bookshelves are crammed already. A lovely gift for any fantasy enthusiast; in fact, t's an absolute must if you're into the genre. It's just that afterwards you will find that nothing will match the author's high quality of writing.
