Revenge is a Dish Best Served Cold: The Count of Monte Cristo

Date of Review:  Sep 1, 2006
The Bottom Line: The Count of Monte Cristo is a classic tale that established or was an early entry in the adventure novel genre. Well worth your time to read.
Review: The Count of Monte Cristo, by Alexandre Dumas (1846)

"The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them." Mark Twain

The Count of Monte Cristo is one of the great adventure stories of all time...

Count of a Myriad Names

Date of Review:  Apr 24, 2000
Review: The Count of Monte Cristo is truly one of the greatest works of Dumas' time, and, quite possibly, of all time. He weaves history, philosophy, and general knowledge into a fabulous plot concerning the justice of revenge. The plot is engaging, and...

";All human wisdom is contained in these words: Wait and hope!";

Date of Review:  Mar 18, 2001
The Bottom Line: It's what every classic should be: a riproaring adventure with death at every turn, a beautiful woman at every crossroads, and a mysterious man behind every sword.
Review: Live and be happy, beloved children of my heart, and never forget that, until the day comes when God will deign to reveal the future to man, all human wisdom is contained in these words: Wait and hope!"

- from The Count of Monte Cristo...

The Big Payback

Date of Review:  Aug 4, 2001
The Bottom Line: Some classics are classics for a reason. Dumas is as readable now as he was when he first wrote his novels.
Review: If revenge is a dish best served cold, then Alexandre Dumas must have been able to whip up a mean gazpacho as well. "The Count of Monte Cristo", along with "The Three Musketeers" helped propel the author into the air of Victor Hugo and Honroe de...

A rich life based on revenge

Date of Review:  May 15, 2000
Review: Over the past few years I have been told by folks of all walks of life to read The Count of Monte Cristo. I figured with that span of people all appreciating the same form of literature, there had to be something to it. I am fascinated by revenge...

Wait and you will find hope!

Date of Review:  Sep 15, 2005
The Bottom Line: For it's accessbility alone worth it.
Review: While I was in the U.K, I happened to hear about a nice bookstore named Blackwell's in Oxford. Having an endless love for literature, I decided to hop by and give it a try. Little did I know that m soul (and my wallet) would soon be sucked away by...

I got this feeling deep inside of me

Date of Review:  Sep 25, 2002
The Bottom Line: This is a good read for all ages, but plan to pull up some real estate and stay for a while...
Review: The Count of Monte Cristo is an intriguing story replete with allegories, parallelisms, opulent imagery, clever characters depictions and few moments of inaction. At once, we are swept into the world of Edmond Dantes, an idealistic, young sailor who...

Revenge is a dish best served cold. mmmm... revenge.

Date of Review:  Dec 19, 2001
The Bottom Line: I have never recommended this book to anyone who didn't absolutely love it.
Review: I grew up in a very educated household. My father has a collection of classic literature that would make even the most well read person envious. Bed time stories were Mark Twain novels, and Louis Carroll stories, we didn't fall asleep to Dr. Seuss...

Difficult read, but worth it!

Date of Review:  Sep 9, 2008
The Bottom Line: I recommend reading this with a group, or at least a smart friend so that you can discuss. 
Review: How does one review a classic? Especially one so noteworthy as to have demanded the creation of 11 or more film variations, numerous adaptations, and even television series? I long avoided reading this novel due mainly to it’s daunting size, and the...

A Guide on How to Mercilessly Exact One's Revenge

Date of Review:  Jan 8, 2001
Review: The Count of Monte Cristo is one of those books that I picked up at the local bookstore, simply because I try to read all of the Classics. I brought it home and began reading, I did not set the book down until I was finished, which took longer than...
