Published serially between 1844 and 1846, The Count of Monte Cristo is one of the greatest adventure novels ever written. Alexandre Dumas tells the story of Edmond Dantes — a sailor unjustly imprisoned in the Chateau d’If — who escapes, discovers a vast hidden treasure, and reinvents himself as the mysterious Count in order to execute a meticulous, decade-spanning revenge against those who betrayed him.
Sweeping, romantic, and endlessly entertaining, the novel explores themes of justice, identity, wealth, and retribution across hundreds of gripping pages. Download this free EPUB from Better Gutenberg and lose yourself in one of literature’s most satisfying revenge stories.
