Edmond Dantès is seething. Locked up for a crime that he did not commit, he's been brewing an escape plan for the past 14 years. And when it painlessly comes to fruition, Edmond is ready and waiting for the next stage in his revenge. He's going to bring down all those responsible for his fate. But to do so, Edmond must hoodwink all those who ripped his rights from his hands many years ago. He reinvents himself as the charming and powerful Count of Monte Cristo... Weaving a whirlwind adventure tale of justice, mercy, and might, Dumas' rip-roaring tale of retribution, redemption, and revenge is a must-read masterpiece for fans of Hugh Jackman's 'Les Misérables' and Morgan Freeman's 'The Shawshank Redemption'.
