About this listen

An adventure story primarily concerned with themes of hope, justice, vengeance, mercy, and forgiveness, The Count of Monte Cristo focuses on a man who is wrongfully imprisoned, escapes from jail, acquires a fortune, and sets about getting revenge on those responsible for his imprisonment. However, his plans have devastating consequences for the innocent as well as the guilty.

Considered a literary classic today, The Count of Monte Cristo has become a fixture of Western literature, as inescapable and immediately identifiable as Mickey Mouse, Noah's flood, and the story of Little Red Riding Hood.

Complete and unabridged; a 55-hour epic adventure!

Quite complicated, lots of characters and in some places too long winded. However, a great storey over all. I think if I had been reading this I'd have got bored, or would have forgotten who was who, so it was good to have it as an audio book

Long winded, but a good storey

Absolutely one of the all time greats and an absolute classic. I’ve been meaning to read this book since I was a teenager and due to time constraints and being unable to find a physical copy (I prefer reading an actual book to digitally) I was struggling to fulfil this wish.

Being able to listen to this audiobook over a few weeks was great and although it is a difficult story to follow at times it is all made clear toward the end. I would however recommend checking up on different characters and names on Google every so often to refresh your memory and make following the story easier.

10/10 would recommend!

All time great
