Pros: it could have been a good story
Cons: it’s not a good story; falls apart in the middle and never reassembles

Pros: Action, suspense, drama, quality work
Cons: Lengthy, not for the passive reader
Dumas is a French author through and through. That means that he writes in a witty, all encompassing style with massive plots, detailed characters, and vivid imagery and scenery. If you are the kind of person that thinks Steele novels are wordy, then...
