This is one of the most intricatly plotted books I have read. Dumas is amazing. The suspense keeps you reading from beginning to end. Long? Yes! Boring! Not in the least. I highly recommend this book!
A good percentage of these books come from or are at least available from Project Gutenberg and it's easy enough to help with the proofing process with them! Then it's a question of helping convert to these other formats to widen the availability of such great works..
Really enjoying the unabridged version on my Kindle. I definitely need to read "The Three Musketeers" now.
I have noticed numerous occasions where the word "has" became "his" in the conversion to electronic form but considering the length of the book, that's not too bad. A few other minor errors but again, I'm not complaining, just referencing.
I wonder if there's a way that we readers could help in the proofreading process.
Thank you for working on this book. It looks truly wonderful except for a couple of glitches:
Chapter 29 -- the (&) has come through on my custom PDF version as (amp;). Perhaps it would be better to show this as (and) -- The House of Morrel and Son.
All double left-hand speech marks are shown as right-hand speech marks. The single speech marks appear correctly. This problem with speech marks is the reason I always use straight (") quotes.
Well done.

Well, I guess the reason is that this book was created using an HTML version (amp; is & in HTML), it'll be easy to correct this mistake.
