( ) I like Verne very much even though much of his works I have read so far are cartoonish. Nonetheless, there is just a positive, forward looking sense that I find invigorating. This is not the best I have read to date , and I understand the last he wrote. Some say it is a poor cousin of Captain Nemo, and I get that. It is also a sequel apparently to Robert the Conquerer, which I have now obtained via Gutenberg so will report on that later Big Ship 11 March 2020 One of the lesser known Verne works and somewhat of a follow up to" Robur the Conqueror". Unlike "Robur", the protagonist is fairly likeable. "Robur" is almost a travelogue - The antagonist, Robur, appears quickly. In "Master", the story is more of a mystery - Robur appears at the end of the story. In this it is somewhat like Nemo's appearance in "Mysterious Island", though "Master" is certainly not up to its story-telling and depth. I enjoyed reading it as a technological mystery. It does not have the foretelling of "Robur" but I don't think that was the intent. Verne is simply recycling a character because he needs a genius antagonist. Just read and enjoy for what it is. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
