I give this book a perfect score simply because I find it highly enjoyable. Make no mistake, though, the plot is basically the same as "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" only this time set in the sky. Also, there is a racist depiction of an African-American servant who is very cowardly.
This novel is just one of Verne's many science fiction stories that ended up becoming (more or less) science fact. An amusing story at the start and end of the book concerns aeronaut enthusiasts who believe balloon travel is the way of the future. Robur (stating Verne's own beliefs that heavy machines being able to fly was possible and would be far superior) proves them wrong and becomes "conqueror of the skies." Others may have different opinions, but I found the book inspirational in that Robur's great willpower enable him to do the impossible (break free from gravity's hold) and become master of himself, not held down by anyone or anything.
