-I would wager four thousand pounds that such a journey, made under these conditions, is impossible." This is how incredulous Stuart responds to mathematically correct Phileas Fogg when he proposes a journey around the world in eighty days. Fogg bets twenty thousand against his four and the race against time is on. He collects his French servant Passepartout and leaves England for England on a thrill ride of a lifetime. He will travel from London to Suez to Bombay to Calcutta to Hong Kong to Yokohama to San Francisco to New York to London. Succeed he may but will he be the same man who left his home only eighty days ago?

Jules Verne (1828-1905) was a French writer, poet and playwright. Dubbed sometimes as the Father of Science Fiction, he had a great influence on many latter day science fiction writers and scientists. Apart from other works, he wrote Voyages extraordinaires, an adventure/science fiction series of over 50 novels many of which are still highly popular among both adults and children. He is the second most translated writer in the world.
