This historical romance, perhaps the greatest cloak-and-sword story ever written, relates the adventures of four fictional swashbuckling heroes who loyally served the French kings Louis XIII and Louis XIV.

When the dashing young d’Artagnan arrives in Paris from Gascony, he becomes embroiled in three duels with the musketeers Athos, Porthos, and Aramis. But when he proves himself by fighting with, not against, the three Musketeers, they form a quick and lasting friendship. The daring escapades of the four pit them against the master of intrigue, Cardinal Richelieu, and the quintessential wicked woman, Lady de Winter.

Alexandre Dumas’s swashbuckling epic has embroidered upon history a colorful world of swordplay, intrigue, and romance.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Get ready for a rousing action-adventure, courtesy of Alexandre Dumas and Simon Vance…Simon Vance’s performance is period-perfect. His characterizations are passionate, full-blooded, and memorable. Vance turns historical events into the background for romance and derring-do, sprinkled with healthy doses of irreverence, wit, and irony. Friendship, loyalty, and honor make this all-for-one-and-one-for-all listening.”

(AudioFile)

“Full of irresistible elements: swordplay, guns…intrigue, derring-do, loyalty, romance, famous historical names…A can’t-miss storytelling proposition.”

(Boston Globe)

“One of the finest adventure novels of all time. It has sword fights, espionage, significant jewelry, wonderfully devious villains, and all manner of high jinks. If you’ve been put off by one of the (many) lackluster film adaptations, do give the book a try—it’s wittier, livelier, cleverer, and more charming than any of its imitators.”

(Tor.com)

“Remains compelling and timeless.”

(Library Journal)

“I do not say there is no character as well drawn in Shakespeare [as D’Artagnan]. I do say there is none that I love so wholly.”

(Robert Louis Stevenson, author of Kim)

Beautifully written book, the story is great. The themes of friendship are timeless. It doesn’t overstay its welcome either and the performance was top notch.

Amazing Timeless Story

While Simon Vance does a perfectly wonderful job of portraying each and every character, the fact this is indeed the original material so many fantastic tales are started from makes me go cross eyed over all the improvements made to the story along the way. The protagonist instead of merely being provocative has the intelligence of a stone, and his companions have to carry the tale to make it at all palatable. I believe I heard more about their wallets then I heard about anything else, even the King is more approachable on some levels. Frankly it's not worth your time to listen.

If you enjoyed any other version, avoid.
