‘The Mysterious Island’ is an adventure novel by Jules Verne published in 1874 and included in his popular science-fiction series
Voyages extraordinaires (1863–1910) as a sequel to his ’20, 000 Leagues Under the Sea’. ‘The Mysterious Island’ follows the adventures of a group of castaways who use their survivalist savvy to build a functional community on an uncharted island.

The secret helper proves to be none other than the reclusive Captain Nemo (first introduced ’20, 000 Leagues Under the Sea’)…
