  <default_description>The Count of Monte Cristo is an adventure novel by Alexandre Dumas. It is often considered, along with &lt;i&gt;The Three Musketeers&lt;/i&gt;, as Dumas' most popular work.  The story takes place in France, Italy, islands in the Mediterranean and the Levant during the historical events of 1815&#8211;1838 (from just before the Hundred Days through the reign of Louis-Philippe of France). The historical setting is a fundamental element of the book. It is primarily concerned with themes of hope, justice, vengeance, mercy, forgiveness and death, and is told in the style of an adventure story.

    <body><![CDATA[I can see why this book is a classic.  The story is intricate, the writing sophisticated, and the plot masterful.  However, the reason that it only gets three stars is because of the main character--Edmond Dantes.  I found him to be entirely incongruent.  Why was he portrayed as the hero?

    <body><![CDATA[This is by far the longest book I've ever read, and I had to keep notes on the characters, since their relationships and roles were difficult to keep straight.  It was ALSO perhaps the most satisfying read I've ever had.

I found that when the book was over I was depressed and glad to put it down.  For anyone that knows this story you will know it's a book of despair and revenge.
