Set against the turbulent years of the Napoleonic era, Dumas's thrilling adventure story is one of the most widely read romantic novels of all time. In it the dashing young hero, Edmond Dantes, is betrayed by his enemies and thrown into a secret dungeon in the Chateau d'If - doomed to spend his life in a dank prison cell. The story of his long, intolerable years in captivity, his miraculous escape, and his carefully wrought revenge creates a dramatic tale of mystery, and intrigue, and paints a vision of France - a dazzling, dueling, exuberant France - that has become immortal.

OMG just realised that I didn't journal this when I got it, not like me. Sorry TKT. Well it took me nearly 3 years to read it. I so loved this book as a teenager. It still holds now, especially as I read it as an adult and have some experienc of the world. Fantastic classic.
