A novel written during the late 19th century, specifically in 1886. This work falls within Verne's ''Extraordinary Voyages'' series, which combines adventure with elements of science fiction. The book introduces the character Robur, an ambitious and innovative engineer, who challenges the beliefs of contemporary balloonists about aerial navigation, espousing the superiority of heavier-than-air flying machines. At the start of the novel, readers find themselves amidst a heated debate at the Weldon-Institute in Philadelphia, where members argue passionately over the direction of balloons as a method of flight. The tension escalates when Robur, an enigmatic figure, crashes the meeting, asserting that the future of aviation lies with machines that are heavier than air. His provocative challenge to the balloonists leads to uproar and chaos in the assembly. As Robur asserts his dominance in the scientific discussion, Uncle Prudent and Phil Evans—the club's president and secretary—become fierce adversaries but ultimately agree on a common enemy when they are mysteriously abducted from the park after the meeting. This sets the stage for the unfolding drama, suggesting a grand adventure centered around the quest for aerial innovation and confrontation with Robur himself.
