Bookroo's summary

Embark on a journey to the enigmatic Kerguelen Islands, where the end holds a mystery stranger than the voyage itself. What secrets lie in this remote archipelago, untouched by Poe and Verne's imaginations? Uncover the unknown and face the unexpected.

From the publisher

But strange as the journey may be, it’s nowhere near as strange as what they will find waiting at its end. Neither Poe nor Verne had actually visited the remote Kerguelen Islands, located in the south Indian Ocean, but their works are some of the few literary (as opposed to exploratory) references to the archipelago.
