A historical romance, The Three Musketeers tells the story of the early adventures of the young Gascon gentleman, D'Artagnan and his three friends from the regiment of the King's Musketeers - Athos, Porthos and Aramis. Under the watchful eye of their patron M. de Treville, the four defend the honour of the regiment against the guards of Cardinal Richelieu, and the honour of the queen against the machinations of the Cardinal himself as the power struggles of seventeenth century France are vividly played out in the background.

Young D¡¯Artagnan arrives in Paris to join the King¡¯s elite guards, but almost immediately finds he is duelling with some of the very men he has come to swear allegiance to ? Porthos, Athos and Aramis, inseparable friends: the Three Musketeers. Soon part of their close band, D¡¯Artagnan¡¯s loyalty to his new allies puts him in the deadly path of Cardinal Richlieu¡¯s machinations. And when the young hero falls in love with the beautiful but inaccessible Constance, he finds himself in a world of murder, conspiracy and lies, with only the Musketeers to depend on. A stirring nineteenth-century tale of friendship and adventure, The Three Musketeers continues to be one of the most influential and popular p***es of French literature.
