A major new translation of one of the most enduring works of literature, from the award- winning, bestselling co-translator of Anna Karenina?with a spectacular, specially illustrated cover

The Three Musketeers is the most famous of Alexandre Dumas?s historical novels and one of the most popular adventure stories ever written. Now in a bracing new translation, this swashbuckling epic chronicles the adventures of d?Artagnan, a brash young man from the countryside who journeys to Paris in 1625 hoping to become a musketeer and guard to King Louis XIII. Before long he finds treachery and court intrigue?and also three boon companions: the daring swordsmen Athos, Porthos, and Aramis. Together they strive heroically to defend the honor of their queen against the powerful Cardinal Richelieu and the seductive spy Milady.

@d?ArtsDaMAN It?s time to go off into the world and follow my secondary dream and become a Musketeer. Apparently Jedis don?t actually exist.
