Synopsis

A gripping treasure of adventure and courage set in 19th‑century India.

Follow a daring band of explorers as they confront danger, cunning enemies, and a legendary engine named Behemoth in a race across the Indian frontier.

From ruined forts and siege memories to fast chases through rugged landscapes, this tale blends high-stakes action with the emotional toll of war. The story centers on loyalty, ingenuity, and the personal toll of conflict as the characters push toward a perilous goal, facing triumphs and losses along the way.

  • Relentless pursuit across harsh terrain, with narrow escapes and bold combat.
  • Inventive gadgets and engineering feats that change the odds in a life‑or‑death chase.
  • Historic backdrop drawn from the turmoil and heroism of a colonial era.
  • Themes of memory, grief, and the bonds that sustain a team under pressure.

Ideal for readers who love fast, cinematic adventure with a swashbuckling spirit and a dash of historical drama.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from Works of Jules Verne: Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea; A Journey

As for the selection of India as the seat of the story, Verne himself explained that his purpose was to cover, one by one, each of the countries of the globe, more especially those little known, so as to make of his completed works a sort of universal geography. Traveling under his guidance, he meant that we should travel everywhere.
