- You get the pleasure of being trapped in a tiny projectile with Barbicane, Nicholl, and Michel Ardan, whose arguments and practical ingenuity keep the lunar voyage lively. The science is wonderfully speculative and often dated, but the cramped camaraderie and odd technical details make this a charming, slightly eccentric read.
- You get a wonderfully unusual river journey here: Joam Garral and his family travel down the Amazon on an enormous floating farm, while a buried mystery shadows the celebration. It’s leisurely and full of period geography, but the raft, the river, and the family tension stay with you.
- The Voyage of the Beagle no ficciónYoung Darwin is such good company here, riding with gauchos, poking at fossil bones in Patagonia, puzzling over Galápagos finches without knowing yet what they mean. It's a rambling travel journal, so skim freely, but his curiosity about everything is genuinely infectious.
