Gabriel Nemo has never been your normal, everyday twelve-year-old. As a descendant of the famous Captain Nemo, he’s determined to use his Nemotech legacy for good. He and his best friends Peter and Misty spend their days studying at the elite Nemo Institute and in their spare time, run rescue missions in Gabriel’s submarine the Obscure.

But when a mysterious organization using advanced technology attacks the Institute and kidnaps Gabriel’s mother, he and his friends set off on a race against the clock. They must find Captain Nemo’s long-lost ship, the Nautilus, before his mother's time runs out!

Industry Reviews

The second aquatic adventure in this series starts its action on page one and keeps the stakes high and the adventure swimming along... a solid story set in a very original and specific undersea world full of gizmos and submarine vessels, and it can be enjoyed on its own merit with or without reading book one. --Booklist Online

Once again, Henderson has readers diving into the ocean's depths on an adventure-packed quest with Gabriel and his crew. It's fantastic to see a story in which friends not only communicate well but also help one another "work the problem" as issues arise on their search for the infamous Nautilus. ... Gabriel and his crew will please seafaring science nerds or anyone seeking a new group of characters to love. --School Library Journal

There's both futuristic and classic steampunk appeal here, admirably mixing Jules Verne lore with 007-level gadgetry. Stakes are high, the pace is fast, and there are excellent (and surprisingly subtle) messages of coping with childhood loneliness and the importance of taking care of our planet's oceans. --Booklist on Young Captain Nemo
