The Corsican Brothers And Otho, The Archer (Classic Reprint)

This Book Is A Collection Of Two Of Alexandre DumasS Shorter Novels, The Corsican Brothers And Otho, The Archer. Although Perhaps Some Of His Lesser Known Works, These Are Still Both Great Examples Of Alexandre Dumas Writing Prowess. Otho, The Archer Is A Retelling Of A Classic German Medieval Legend. Set On The Banks Of The Rhine, It Is An Adventure Story Dealing With The Time-Honored Themes Of Love And Hate. As With Many Other Of Dumas Novels, Combat Plays A Large Role In The Narrative, Making It An Appealing Book To Fans Of The Adventure Genre. The Protagonist And Title Character, While Not Well Known In Popular Culture, Is Truly One Of Dumas Classic Literary Creations. The Corsican Brothers, Published Five Years After Otho, The Archer, Is The More Well Known Novel Of The Two. Dumas Tells The Tale Of Two Conjoined Twins Who Are Separated At Birth, But Go On To Live A Life Where They Feel Forever Connected To One Another. Italy And France Are The Backdrop For This Exciting Revenge Story, Full Of Intrigue And Exhilarating Action. The Story Has Been Adapted Many Times For Both The Stage And In Hollywood Productions. At Less Than Fifty Pages Each, Both Books In This Collection Can Be Considered Short Novels. This Collection Is Dumas At His Best, Featuring Rapidly Moving Narratives, Fascinating Characters, And Plenty Of Action. While The Count Of Monte Cristo Is The Typical Entry Point For Readers New To Dumas, The Brevity Of These Works Make Them Compelling As A Means Of Introduction To Alexandre Dumas Writing.
