The Three Musketeers Paperback

D'Artagnan rides into Paris with a letter, a borrowed horse and no manners at all, and picks three duels with the men who become his closest allies. Alexandre Dumas keeps two engines running at once: the swordplay of four soldiers who answer to nobody, and a court intrigue involving a queen, a set of diamond studs and a cardinal with better information than anyone else. Milady de Winter darkens the second half considerably. At 696 pages the paperback holds the full novel, and the chapters are short enough that a long book never feels like a chore. The essentials: • Dumas's full-length adventure in a 696-page paperback • D'Artagnan with Athos, Porthos and Aramis against Richelieu's agents • Court intrigue, the diamond studs and the shadow of Milady de Winter • Short chapters that keep a long historical novel moving For readers of historical adventure, older students and anyone filling out a classics collection, published by Fingerprint!
