Summary
Twenty Years After, the sequel to The Three Musketeers, reunites readers with d’Artagnan, Athos, Porthos, and Aramis two decades after their youthful adventures. France is in turmoil—Cardinal Richelieu is gone, but new political and social upheavals arise during the regency of Queen Anne and the rise of Cardinal Mazarin.
The musketeers, once inseparable, have gone their separate ways, but d’Artagnan’s call brings them together again. As they navigate dangerous plots, shifting loyalties, and personal trials, their enduring bond of friendship is tested against the backdrop of revolution and civil war.
Blending action, intrigue, and historical drama, Dumas and Maquet craft a powerful continuation of the musketeers’ saga, rich with both nostalgia and new conflicts.
