Book excerpt: Is the ultimate destination ordained to be mankind's final foe? Weird events tear apart the life of young pilot Axle Lidenbrock II, adventurous great nephew of the legendary explorer in Jules Verne's Journey to the Center of the Earth. A mysterious note from his long-lost father to rescue him from the mythical land of Shambala proves real, and he launches a secret expedition to save him, but the voyage is hijacked. A desperate reporter, a blind detective stowaway, and a murderer jeopardize the journey and they crash in the Antarctic. Axle's heroism leads them to a fabled entrance to the lost world below, and they descend into a subterranean futuristic kingdom that holds a horrifying secret never before revealed.
