The release date for the English version of 'The Three Musketeers' by
Alexandre Dumas is Feb 2001. If you enjoy this novel, it is available for buy as a paperback from Barnes & Noble or Indigo, as an ebook on the Amazon Kindle store, or as an audiobook on Audible.
The story recounts the adventures of 18-year-old Artagnan, a poor Gascon who came to Paris to work as a mousquetaire. He is friendly with the royal musselmen Athos, Porthos, and Aramis. Ces quatre hommes vont s'opposer au premier ministre, le cardinal de Richelieu et à ses agents, dont le comte de Rochefort et la belle et mystérieuse Milady de Winter, pour sauver l'honneur de la reine de France Anne d'Autriche. Les Trois Mousquetaires, with its many fight scenes and Romanesque rebondissements, is a prime example of a cape and heel novel. The novel's success was so great that Dumas adapted it for the stage and brought back the four heroes in the trilogy's conclusion.
