The Three Musketeers

reviewed
[edit]

Having seen the movie, the book is much more than I expected. It is long, boring in places, funny in others, and with a satisfactory ending.
A young man sets out to become a musketeer, and unwittingly gets into trouble from the start with the very men he desires to fight with - not against. The problems between the king and the cardinal cause division among their people, and the musketeers get involved in protecting, defending, rescuing, and living it up.

One of my all-time favorites (along with The Count of Monte Cristo!)

A fantastic adventure story, much like Dumas's Count of Monte Cristo. If you enjoyef that you're bound to enioy The Three Musketeers.
