Wexenberger did a great job in translating the classic imo! Being able to read classics in original German is a aspiration of mine and this is a good way to get there.
The story by Vernes itself was entertaining but a bit outdated to me. The story builds up slowly and mostly instills feelings of excitement and suspense to me whereas I usually look for deeper takeaways and learnings in books as well.
Finally! after reading halfway through I picked it back up and finished. It was as advertised a book simplified for someone learning to be fluent in German. Needed German language tools and helps, but I was also able to understand much on my own.
