Recensioner i media

Dashingly illustrated... Fresh, idiosyncratic and winning... Dave Eggers takes nicely judged liberties with Jules Verne's Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea as Captain Nemo but stays true to its spirit. There is nonstop entertainment on board his submarine - the writing is such fun
