About This Intelligence
"The Master of the World" by Jules Verne is a novel published in 1904. In the summer of 1903, mysterious phenomena plague the Eastern United States as objects move at impossible speeds. Federal inspector John Strock investigates and discovers Robur, a brilliant inventor who has created the Terror—a revolutionary machine that operates as speedboat, submarine, automobile, and aircraft. This dark tale explores themes of tyranny and totalitarianism as Strock pursues the elusive genius across land, sea, and sky. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
