Why is this strange master clockmaker from Geneva being harassed by a walking, talking clock? Why have almost all of the timepieces he ever made stopped working, one by one? Can he discover the cause of their malfunctioning in time to save his daughter from a terrible fate?


"Master Zacharius" is a hallucinating fantasy short story about the limits of man's scientific knowledge! Followed by "Gil Braltar," a rousing political satire short story about mischievous monkeys and the British territory of Gibraltar, and "A Drama in the Air," a dizzying adventure short story about a death-defying journey in a hot-air balloon!


This edition includes: new translations, twenty illustrations, and a glossary of uncommon words!


Translated by Grigory Fozimir. Illustrations by Th. Schuler; G. Roux; and E. Bayard and A. Marie.


Jules Verne (1828-1905) is the world-famous author of the wondrous adventure stories Journey to the Center of the Earth, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas, and Around the World in Eighty Days!
