bookishbro 's review for:

The Club Dumas by Arturo Pérez-Reverte

2.0

---

What I liked about this book was the way it was written and the insight it offered into Alexandre Dumas, rare book collecting, forgeries and stolen books. But overall it was a disappointing read. I found the last two chapters to be a let down after all the build up throughout the whole book. The resolution to the mystery surrounding the Anjou Wine manuscript was out there and a bit nonsensical to me. The resolution to the rest of the story was rather flat and unfulfilling in my opinion.
