The Count of Monte Cristo is by Alexandre Dumas. A must read for those who would be well read. On my "if I were on a desert island and could only have ten books" list. This is a wonderful tale of betrayal and revenge. It is the story of Edmund Dantes who is betrayed on the day of his wedding and sent to prison for a crime he didn't commit. In prison he is taught a variety of subjects by a fellow prisoner and after his harrowing escape begins to exact his revenge. A fantastic historical fiction story and a classic.
Ratings: 9th grade - 10 out of 10.
