Verbose but well written.

Interesting tale of Brotherhood. Enjoyed the different nuances is in this work. It took a while to get to the main story, but the time was worth the wait.

Good fun! I liked this story and listened to it on Corsica! Dumas is just a badass.

Could not enjoy


(2 stars)

I love Dumas, and have read many of his other books multiple times, but for some reason, this one could not keep my interest. No, really, it's not you, it's me...

A tale from the wild frontier.

Refreshing to see natural justice prevailing when today, so often, we see our 'sophisticated' legal system benefiting the wrongdoers rather than their victims.

It was just as good as The Count of Monte Cristo! Thank you LibriVox!

Much to short; yet as,Dumas, had made it a complete tale.
