Verne also set stories in Scotland, however, including \u003cem\u003eThe Underground City\u003c\/em\u003e. In this all-new translation, Verne uses the mist-shrouded shores of Loch Katrine and the Trossachs as sinister scenery against which an enthralling tale of adventure, love and the supernatural unfolds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTen years after manager James Starr left the Aberfoyle mine underneath Loch Katrine exhausted of coal, he receives an intriguing missive that suggests the pit isn’t barren after all.

Or is something more menacing afoot, something unnatural they can neither see nor understand?
