Set in 1625, the narrative follows young D'Artagnan, who arrives in Paris eager to join the king's musketeers. His initial confrontations with the seasoned musketeers—Porthos, Aramis, and Athos—quickly turn into camaraderie when they unite against the Cardinal's guards. Their friendship deepens as they embark on a quest to locate a missing woman, facing court intrigues and the treacherous Milady, a spy determined to undermine Queen Anne. This volume captures D'Artagnan's journey filled with adventure, loyalty, and political machinations.

Perhaps the greatest “cloak and sword” story ever written, The Three Musketeers, first published ion 1844, is a tale for all time. Pitting the heroic young d’Artagnan and his noble compatriots, Athos, Porthos, and Aramis against the master of intrigue, Cardinal Richelieu, and the quintessential wicked woman, Lady de Winter, Alexandre Dumas has created an enchanted France of swordplay, schemes and assignations. The era and the characters are based on historical fact, but the glittering romance and fast-paced action spring from a great writer’s incomparable imagination. From the perilous retrieval of the queens gift to her lover in time to foil Rechelieu’s plot to the melodramatic revelation of Lady de Winter’s true identity, The Three Musketeers is the unchallenged archetype for literary romance and a perennial delight for generations of readers.
