The goal of Reverie Bookshop is to make owning books affordable and is a small business that I am currently running out of my home.

All listings have at least a 3.5 rating on Goodreads and, when purchasing my inventory, I try to find books in the best condition possible. 

However, these are used books and will not always be perfect. I only sell books that have a lot of life left, so there will never be a book that is unreadable.

I strive to adhere to a the following shipping schedule:
Orders placed before noon (CST) will be shipped same business day.
Purchases made after noon (CST) will be shipped the next business day.
Weekend & holiday purchases will be shipped on the next business day.

Thank you for supporting my small shop.

An American frigate, tracking down a ship-sinking monster, faces not a living creature but an incredible invention -- a fantastic submarine commanded by the mysterious Captain Nemo.nbsp;nbsp;Suddenly a devastating explosion leaves just three survivors, who find themselves prisoners inside Nemo's death ship on an underwater odyssey around the world from the pearl-laden waters of Ceylon to the icy dangers of the South Pole . . .as Captain Nemo, one of the greatest villians ever created, takes his revenge on all society.



More than a marvelously thrilling drama, this classic novel, written in 1870, foretells with uncanny accuracy the inventions and advanced technology of the twentieth century and has become a literary stepping-stone for generations of science fiction writers.
