Features: The Count of Monte Cristo was written in 1868, the fifth science fiction novel by Verne, and also his best work. For over a century, it has become a timeless classic enjoyed by readers. The novel depicts Sir Graham, the owner of the steamship Duncan, who receives clues about the Scottish sailor Captain Grant, who disappeared two years ago, and requests the British government to send a crew to search for him. The British government refuses his request, and he resolutely decides to organize his own expedition team to personally accomplish this mission. He takes with him the children of Captain Grant. They cross the vast continent of South America, traverse Australia and New Zealand, and circumnavigate the globe. Along the way, with immense courage and perseverance, they endure countless hardships and overcome numerous difficulties, finally finding Captain Grant on a deserted island in the Pacific. Verne, the father of science fiction, has the bold and innovative works that are both fascinating and enjoyable to read. This book is part of Verne's famous trilogy. The story recounts the children of Captain Grant, after experiencing countless trials and twists, finally rescuing their father on a deserted island in the Pacific. I believe the ever-changing fate of the characters and their persistent pursuit of freedom will tightly capture the readers' hearts.
