Summary: Around the World in 80 Days
Comment: This book was interesting and I couldn't put it down. Of course, this was written by Jules Verne and was filled with exciting moments. Philleas Fogg, an Englishman, bets 20,000 pounds that he can travel around the world in 80 days with his companion and sevant named Jean Passepartout. After betting this money at the reform club, he departs soon from London and travels all the way around the world. After arriving in many different countries by many different means of transportation, he lands in India and runs into a enchanting young princess who is about to be killed. Fogg and Passepartout come to the rescue and keep moving right along. And soon, they fell in love. But this whole time, there was trouble right behind him. Detective Fix thinks Fogg was a bank robber and this detective is following him everywhere so he can arrest him in London. Passepartout ends up thinking this man is a member of the reform club, and thinks he's trying to stop them from getting there. After many close calls through transportation and an arrest, Fogg arrives. But you'll have to read it yourself to find out what happens. It's a wonderful book and if you haven't read it, it's a good book to read.

Summary: Mark Holy Angels Review of audiobook
Comment: Around the world in Eighty Days is a really great book. With a wonderful and thrilling adventure and some suspense. Around the world in eighty days is about a man named Phileas Fogg makes a bet with some of his fellow club members. With 20,000 pounds on the line Phileas Fogg starts his adventure right away with his servant Passepartout. But unsuspectingly are being followed by a detective named Mr. Fix who is accusing Phileas Fogg of a robbery. After many twist and turns Phileas Fogg arrives to India where he meets a young lady who's name is Aouda. Then after that he arrives to America and travels across the plains with his fellow travelers and Mr. Fix but is attacked by some enraged Indians. After making it to New York he travels across the sea to Ireland but with only less then a day left it will be pretty hard to make it in time. Read this book to see if he makes it or if he fails. I suggest this book to any reader who likes adventure and suspense.

Summary: Great Adventure
Comment: Around the World in 80 Days continues to be an entertaining read even as world travel has become so common place. It also provides a snap shot of the countries as they were when Verne wrote the book.
