nelsonseye 's review for:

3.0

So while I did enjoy my reread (20+ years later), I found the Count a bit of a slog. And this was only 500 pages. Sometimes the suspense was fantastic, others it lost momentum; the history was engaging, both the French and Italian, but the final romance did not work for me (if it ever did). However, I kind of want to read the full 1000+ pages to see what I missed.
