The Musketeers - The Three Musketeers, Twenty Years After (set of 2 books)

In «The Three Musketeers», a young Gascon arrives in Paris with dreams of service and quickly finds himself caught up in others' intrigues, duels, and dangerous missions. A chance encounter with three musketeers turns into an alliance where impulsiveness, nobility, calculation, and strength complement each other. The heroes must defend the queen's honor, navigate the traps of Cardinal Richelieu, embark on risky journeys, and stick together where every step could lead to a blow. In the second book, time changes not only France but also the friends themselves. Against the backdrop of the Fronde and the struggle surrounding Cardinal Mazarin, former allies meet again, but now in a world where personal loyalty increasingly clashes with political interests. The adventurous scope remains: military episodes, courtly combinations, English events, and new trials for old friendship.
