LONDON, UK (February 26 2004) - GMX Media today announced that The Entente: WWI Battlefields and Journey to the Centre of the Earth will be released in the UK on Friday (27th of February).

Journey to the Centre of the Earth: Scientific opinion was divided when, in 1864, Professor Hardwigg first told of his adventurous journey to the center of the Earth.

Should scientists believe this far-fetched tale from a member of their community? An envious rival succeeds in undermining Hardwigg's credibility and gradually the whole story is forgotten.

The expedition is rumored to have been pure fantasy....
