Summary
Summary
Bandits & Rebels is an anthology of some of Jules Verne’s earliest work, including the first appearance of a submarine in his fiction. As well as his interest in science, it illustrates his geographical and historical range, with San Carlos, a story about smugglers in Spain; a story about the siege of Rome in 1848; and Martin Paz, about an indigenous uprising in Peru in the 1830s. The audiobook includes a detailed introduction by Sorbonne professor and Verne expert Daniel Compére.

Author Bio: Jules Verne
Jules Verne (1828–1905) is considered by many the father of science fiction. Born in Nantes, France, he studied law but turned to writing opera libretti until the 1863 publication of Five Weeks in a Balloon, the first of his Extraordinary Voyages series. Its success encouraged him to produce a number of classic and prophetic science fiction novels, including Journey to the Center of the Earth and Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea. His stories foresaw many scientific and technological developments, including the submarine, television, and space travel.
