Um þessa rafbók

How do you survive when tragedy is your constant companion?

With nearly all his family dead, Pascal Bruno turns to a life of crime to survive. His only hope of escape is through the love of Teresa, a servant for a local Countess. But when Teresa is made to marry someone else, Pascal vows to have his revenge.

Set in Palermo in the late 18th century, ́The Sicilian Bandit ́ is another reliable pageturner from Alexandre Dumas. There are plenty of pirates, plots, and sword fights, and Pascal is a moody anti-hero worth rooting for.

Recommended for lovers of Dumas’ more action-packed historical fiction. Alexandre Dumas (1802 - 1870) was a hugely popular 19th-century French writer. Born of mixed French and Haitian heritage, Dumas first rose to prominence in Paris as a playwright but later gained international fame with his historical fiction. Often co-authored with other writers, these stories wove together swashbuckling adventure, romance, and real events from France’s past. Among the best known are ́The Three Musketeers ́, and its sequels ́Twenty Years After ́, and "Le Vicomte de Bragelonne: Ten Years Later". Set across four decades, this trilogy follows the rise of the dashing D’Artagnan - from hotheaded soldier to trusted captain under Louis XIV. Dumas’ other novels include ́The Count of Monte Cristo ́ and ́The Black Tulip ́. His works have been adapted into more than 200 movies, including ́The Man in the Iron Mask ́ starring Leonardo DiCaprio.
