Dumas is one of my favorite authors of all time and if Lolita would've been taken at some point in the draft, The Count of Monte Cristo would've been my fiction pick.

The Musketeers Saga has the benefit of being a non sci-fi/fantasy series and has two of Dumas's most enjoyable novels as the bookends in Three Musketeers and Man in the Iron Mask, though I have to say, I like Twenty Years After a lot.
