Adventure classics

Sorry- spelt it wrong

Les Liaisons Dangereuses

Not really an 'adventure' theme, but if you liked count of monte cristo, you'll probably like it.

Lots of film attempts at adaptating it- one of the more current ones is cruel intentions.

It's about Captain William Kidd, who was commisioned as a Privateer/ Pirate hunter, but was hung for supposedley turning Pirate himself.

I've read it and thought it very interesting...if indeed it's true. It gives a different twist to the myth of Kidd.

[Themistocles]

Oh yes, Ivanhoe belongs up there of course, but be prepared for some marathon sentences constituting truly titanic descriptive passages - I didn't know it was possible to achieve so many clauses in a single structure!

 

[True@1stLight]

The Count of Monte Cristo and Once and Future King definately.
