Review: The Best Adventure Story Ever
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 10 25, 2013
This is the best adventure story I've read and judging by its continuing popularity, many readers share that view. As odd as it sounds when discussing a 1,200 page novel, it is fast-paced with significant action in every one of its 117 chapters.Depending on your point of view, it's a tale of revenge, the pursuit of justice,divine providence or a tragic love story.. However you see it in the end, its hero, Edmund Dantes ( or depending on his particular disguise the Count of Monte Cristo, Sinbad the Sailor, Lord Wilmore or Abbe Busoni) is the ultimate romantic hero, always at the center of things unraveling secrets and manipulating events to bring ruin to the three men who caused him to be unjustly imprisoned for fourteen years.Since no review or movie can do the story justice, I highly recommend your reading it. There is nothing on television or in theatres to match it.
