The Sultan of Monte Cristo is the first sequel to Dumas’ The
Count of Monte Cristo. As the
introduction states the original story leaves the reader hanging, closing only
with the words “Wait and hope.” The
Holy Ghost Writer does an exceptional job spinning a tale in his first
sequel. Once picked up I could not stop
reading until the end. The Sultan, AKA
the Count, AKA Edmond Dantes, AKA Sinbad the Sailor goes on a marvelous
adventure , ridding the world of evil pirates and beginning his harem of wives.
I look forward to reading more from this author. He promises to bring us another sequel with Sherlock
Holmes as one of the characters.
