>> dumas is exciting
a thrilling story i find parts ofensive being a woman and not liking the way they lived but the story is ingaging and you cant really start the story without knowing our little group are a bunch of wominizers so as long as you set that aside its a fun read though of course its still there id not recomemend it to my daughters but I dont prevent them from reading it either you have to love a classic and how they make you think and this one has a lot of riotus fun reading
>> Good storytelling but not classic literature
These remind me of the Classics Illustrated Comics that were popular many decades ago except without all the pictures I suppose my 5 star rating has nothing to do with these editions it has everything to do with the stories being retold in this series We purchased a bunch of them and are enjoying the stories Make no mistake this is not classic literature it is the retelling of the classic stories paraphrased for young readers
Please enjoy these for what they are then an introduction to ageless tales from the brilliant minds of great authors If your young readers enjoy these stories encourage them to read the real novels In that way the young reader will progress from a mere familiarity with the characters in these abbreviated stories and hopefully come to love the expressive skill of the authors who created them
>> This is Sherlock Holmes NOT Three Musketeers
I bought The Three Musketeers but what I got was The Return of Sherlock Holmes file identical to a file I already have same number of bytes etc
Note the comments this is NOT the Three Musketeers the title seems to have changed at some point Bizarre
