500 plus paged books
The Count of Monte Cristo is my favorite novel of all-time. A fantastic work of literature.

I've read some of it (skipped over some of it while trying to compare it to the movie versions I've seen. There is quite a bit of difference in how the story plays out between the book & movie versions. Of course that's normal as if they tried to include everything in a book in a movie it would be too expensive not to mention long.

I've another rather good book to recommend.
The Black Echo by Michael Connelly is the first book in the Harry Boch series. Very good. ![]() Quote:

Actually, not wrong at all. I asked about the page numbers in the different versions and was told by the Luffy as long as one version has 500+ pages, it's OK (see post #44 in this thread). This is from Amazon for the Mass Market Paperback edition...
