Start is great, middle sllghtly prolonged in my opinion. Did not finish it yet. Would I buy again? Yes. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nice *by S***E on 29 October 2020* Outstanding clothbound edition. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Adventures and treasures *by A***J on 10 April 2021* I would have never thought that the book would be so different from the movie, and it is so much more! This book was filled with adventure, action and a little hint of romance! I enjoyed the conclusion that the Count came to in the end... *SPOILER (kind of) ALERT* ...that revenge is truly a dish best served cold, that is a tasteless dish should never have been served... ## Frequently Bought Together - The Count of Monte Cristo (Penguin Classics) - The Picture of Dorian Gray - Wuthering Heights (Penguin Classics) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/265321061-the-count-of-monte-cristo](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/265321061-the-count-of-monte-cristo) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-04*
