The Count of Monte Cristo

by Alexander Dumas
If AD was alive today he would surely be writing film scripts. This book moves at such an exhilarating pace that the 1200+ pages seemed to fly by with its cast of prisoners, thieves, bandits, child murderers, poisoners, lesbians, drug users, and more. For a ripping yarn and not quite the expected ending this is great stuff. 9/10
