cathschaffstumpAlexandre Dumas is one of my favorite authors. No one does adventurous camaraderie underscored by deep relationship like my man Alexandre. His books are thick, substantial, weighty, easy to fall into.
My favorite Dumas books are his Musketeer books. I have a strong identity factor with D'Artagnan, and I love the complexity of the Musketeers. I read the books at sixteen, and read them again and again. I always avoided The Count of Monte Cristo, because people said that was Dumas' best book, and I so wanted the Musketeer series to be number one.
Two years ago, I read Monte Cristo. Everyone else was right, yeah, I admit it.
