Little treasures, the FLAME TREE COLLECTABLE CLASSICS are chosen to create a delightful and timeless home library. Each stunning, gift edition features deluxe cover treatments, ribbon markers, luxury endpapers and gilded edges. The original text is accompanied by a Glossary of Victorian and Literary terms produced for the modern reader. In this original abridged and accessible version of the beloved novel, we follow Dant�s, imprisoned within the dread ramparts of the Chateau d'If, as he plans his escape to take revenge on the three men whose actions led to his fate. Finding a hidden treasure, he transforms himself into the Count of Monte Cristo and slowly executes his retribution. Alexandre Dumas' famous tale is as riveting now as it was popular in the 1800s when it established itself as a classic for all times.

This book was for a Christmas gift. I did not read it personally. It was in very good condition and the transaction went very well.

Trend setter
This book set the standard way back when. However, it is not the best written book - overly simplistic, telling the reader what is happening rather than showing the reader, rather than have the reader experience and feel what is happening.
Over all, a great book.

Ships, poison, and philosophy
When I first started the Count of Monte Cristo, I thought that I was in for a good adventure tale, complete with intrigue, romance, and drama. Almost all the way through the book, I stuck to tthe opinion that the book was satisfying and engaging but not highly thought-provoking. And then in the last few pages I realized how much more the book is. Of course it was entertaining in and of itself, but it also helped me understand human nature a little more. How revenge can quickly spiral out of control, how guilt is relative in many ways, how justice is not necessarily the domain of man, all of these themes are explored in the book. And for that, more than for the wonderful storyline, this book is an important piece of the world's literary history.
