The Other Log of Phileas Fogg is Philip Jose Farmer's 1973 science-fiction revival of Jules Verne's Around the World in Eighty Days protagonist, recasting Fogg's journey as cover for a secret conflict between two immortal alien races and folding in crossover characters like Sherlock Holmes and Moriarty. It's a foundational text of the Wold Newton family of shared literary-character fiction. Later writers continued the same shared continuity with further Fogg novels decades on.
