These authors help define the basics of science fiction as it emerged from Victorian fantasy. Their dramatic, adventurous stories move from reality into vividly imagined worlds with engaging characters. Jules Verne is more richly detailed, yet Edgar Rice Burroughs is descriptive, and both can be lyrical. Burroughs is more violent and action-packed. -- Matthew Ransom
Jules Verne and H. G. Wells are widely cited as the fathers of modern science fiction. Verne's action-packed adventures are more optimistic about technology than Wells's bleak warnings, but their novels still share many now-familiar genre themes. Eccentric scientists abound, and both also envision trips to the moon. -- Michael Shumate
These authors' works have the genre "sea stories"; and the subjects "adventurers," "voyages and travels," and "adventure."
These authors' works have the genre "classics"; and the subjects "sixteen-year-old boys," "fourteen-year-old boys," and "seafaring life."
