   Las estrellas mi destino de Alfred Bester (rareflorida)

   rareflorida: An old SciFi classic based upon The Count of Monte Cristo. Be patient because the begining of the story may be frustrating but you will eventually see the intelligence.

   The Black Tulip de Alexandre père Dumas (2below)

   2below: These stories share some key themes and plot elements. It's not nearly as epic as The Count of Monte Cristo but makes for an interesting comparison.

    The Count of Monte Cristo [2002 film] de Kevin Reynolds (Usuari anònim)

    Usuari anònim: Fascinating interpretation. Very free and very different. Really an independent work of art. If not superior to the novel, certainly not inferior to it either. Great script, superb cast, beautiful music, gorgeous production design.

    The Queen of the South de Arturo Pérez-Reverte (lilisin)

    lilisin: "Queen of the South" is a modern retake on "The Count". Not my favorite read but you can definitely see the parallels.
