The Count of Monte Cristo

still reading it, I was surprise it was very thick book

This is a long story. Start is great, middle sllghtly prolonged in my opinion. Did not finish it yet. Would I buy again? Yes.

The book wasn’t in the perfect condition

Wonderful read. I completed the book within 23 days. It's an awesome page turner for 1200 pages novel. Worth reading and worth your time. The book came in great condition.

Outstanding clothbound edition.

The book is well wrapped, the printing is very clear. Can’t wait to read it !

I just got it, I am super excited to read it and the quality of the book is good overall.

This is about the clothbound edition by penguin. It is the only version I could find with the Robin Buss translation. It is the most modern and most readable translation in English. Highly recommended. I hope that one day Penguin will publish a bit more elaborate edition of this version. I think this book deserves it.

This story is wonderful. A great read. But read it when you have a lot of time. This one was/is a translation of the original text in French. It was a little hard to get into, but I loved it for the detail it gave me. I read a German translation that was not quite as 'attached' to the original style. I read that one from the first the the last word in one night. I just could not put it down. The English translation was more detailed and took a 'little' longer to read. It was also twice the volume. It is a great story for the person that believes in justice and revenge, where it hurts the most. At that time in the pocket-book. I loved the story and the author's style. The two translations were quite different, not taking away from the story line, however. A great story, well written and translated.

ペーバーバックとは言え1300ページ近い分厚い読み応えのある本です。 あらすじは映画でも見て知っているのですが、ストーリー展開にどんどん引き込まれ時間の経つのを忘れます。 又、映画ではカットされている部分も全て分かるので、楽しんでいます。
