"The Son of Monte-Cristo" stands at the head of all exciting andabsorbing novels. It is the sequel to "The Wife of Monte-Cristo," andthe end of the continuation of Alexander Dumas' phenomenal romance of"The Count of Monte-Cristo." Like its renowned predecessors, itabsolutely swarms with thrilling and dramatic incidents and adventures,everything being fresh, original and delightful. The spell offascination is cast over the reader in the opening chapter and remainsunbroken to the end. It deals chiefly with the astounding career ofEsperance, Monte-Cristo's son, whose heroic devotion to Jane Zeld is oneof the most touching and romantic love stories ever written. The scenesin Algeria have a wild charm, especially the abduction of Esperance andhis struggle with the Sultan on the oasis in the desert. Haydée'sexperience in the slave mart at Constantinople is particularly stirringand realistic, while the episodes in which the Count of Monte-Cristofigures are exceedingly graphic. The entire novel is powerful andinteresting in the extreme. That it will be read by all who have read"The Count of Monte-Cristo" and will delight them is certain.
