I would imagine they would make the very worst of the Print on Demand books look good.....

They are likely to be photocopies/computer printouts.

 

Me, I wouldn't trust them with my money.

Yes, it is. Like Mr Hayfield, I think if they publish so many JV works it's just in relation with the status of the texts (like in France). I write my question better : are those books containing only novels (what does it mean when I see the title "Films based on the works of JV" ?) and does someone know the quality/interest of these publications ?

Is this from Amazon - (beige coloured picture with large black text)? If so they list stuff that is NOT out of copyright also.

I don't know if Amazon know about this.

Books LLC refers to the Book Club whose main operation appears to be creating hard copies (for which they charge) of domain free texts and seem to have a number of Verne stories broken up into volumes.

        Bonjour,

         

        Je suis en train de préparer une commande de livres récents en anglais pour la Collection Jules Verne. Dans les différents sites que je visite, j'ai noté une série de titres publiés par « Books LLC » cette année dont je n'arrive pas à déterminer le contenu et l'intérêt :

         

        Works Inspired by Jules Verne, Films Based on the Works of Jules Verne

        Works Inspired by H.G. Wells ... Jules Verne

        Jules Verne ... Nautilus, David Farragut, SS Great Eastern ...

        Et d'autres titres plus généraux (ex. Science Fiction Hall of Fame)

         

        Qui peut me dire ce que contiennent ces livres et quel est leur intérêt ?

         

        Merci d'avance,

         

        Bien cordialement,

         

        Bernard Sinoquet
