Around the World in 80 Days

by Jules Verne

Around the World in 80 Days follows the extraordinary adventures of the unflappable English gentleman Phileas Fogg, who wagers his entire fortune that he can travel around the globe in just eighty days. Accompanied by his spirited new valet, Passepartout, Fogg embarks on a whirlwind journey by train, ship, and even elephant, racing against time and unexpected obstacles.

Along the way, the pair encounter storms, delays, daring rescues, and a persistent detective convinced that Fogg is a fugitive bank robber. Their travels take them from London to Egypt, India, Hong Kong, Japan, and across America, meeting colourful characters and facing challenge after challenge.

As the deadline approaches, Fogg’s precision and calm determination are tested to the limit. What begins as a daring gamble becomes a global adventure filled with humour, heart, and surprising discoveries — including the possibility that the greatest journey is one that changes a man forever.
