The ending completely took me by surprise. I really wasn't expecting Madame Bonacieux to die or for the Duke of Buckingham to die. But to tell you the truth I was happy to read that Milady was executed. Even though she didn't receive a "fair" trial, she had done so much evil in her life that all sympathy towards her was gone.
I unexpectedly really enjoyed reading this book. It had a little bit of everything in it, and it didn't give you the ending you wanted...or at least the one I wanted. But when you've read book after book after book where you can see the ending before it's even close is more of a disappointment then reading something that I didn't expect at all. I love how in just the last few chapters Alexander Drumas drops there "bombs" and completely change what you think might happen.
