Publisher Description
Now a television miniseries directed by Bille August and starring Sam Claflin
Dashing young Edmond Dantes has everything: a fine reputation, an appointment as captain of a ship, and the heart of a beautiful woman. But his perfect life is shattered when three jealous friends conspire to destroy him.
Falsely accused of a political crime, Edmond Dantes is locked away for life in the infamous prison at the French Chateau d’If. But it is there that he learns of a vast hidden treasure.
After fourteen years of hopeless imprisonment, Dantes makes his daring escape and follows his secret map to untold fortune. Disguised now as the mysterious and powerful Count of Monte Cristo, Edmond seeks out his enemies—and nothing will stand in the way of his just revenge.
Filled with thrilling episodes of betrayal, romance, and revenge, The Count of Monte Cristo is one of the greatest adventure stories ever written.
Customer Reviews
Excellent reading!
The best narrator I have heard thus far in my audiobook journey. Excellent quality audio with no abnormalities like strange edits, horrible plosives, glaring mispronunciations etc, I have experienced in other books.
Fantastic Narrator
I first borrowed this audiobook from a public library. It was so good I had to buy a copy so I can listen to it when I have nothing else to listen while I work. John Lee is a fantastic narrator. Very entertaining to listen to and when he narrates each character, he does it in a distinct way so you know who is talking. I can visualize the story in my head as I listen.
