Nick asked this question about
The Count of Monte Cristo:
I would like to read the abridged version but I feel like I might be missing out on a big chunk of the story. Is this true?
Sean Helms
You may still get the overall story and plot, but the abridged version will cut the guts out of the story and steal away the suspense.
