Book Description

The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas is a classic adventure novel set in 17th-century France, following the young and ambitious d’Artagnan as he travels to Paris to join the King’s Musketeers. There, he befriends the legendary trio—Athos, Porthos, and Aramis—who live by the motto “All for one and one for all!”

Together, they become embroiled in court intrigues, political rivalries, and daring missions, including thwarting the schemes of the cunning Cardinal Richelieu and his agent, the beautiful but dangerous Milady de Winter. Along the way, d’Artagnan falls in love with Constance Bonacieux, a lady-in-waiting to Queen Anne, and fights to protect the queen’s honour.

Filled with sword fights, romance, and betrayal, The Three Musketeers is a timeless tale of friendship, bravery, and intrigue, marking the beginning of d’Artagnan’s legendary adventures.
