The young d'Artagnan arrives in Paris to join the King's elite guards, but almost immediately finds himself dueling with some of the same people he has come to pledge loyalty to - Porthos, Athos, and Aramis, inseparable friends: the Three Musketeers. He quickly becomes a member of their tight-knit group and his loyalty to his new allies leads him down dangerous paths amid the intrigues of Cardinal Richelieu. When the young hero falls in love with the beautiful but unattainable Constance, he finds himself in a world of murder, conspiracy, and lies, with only the Musketeers to support him. An epic 19th-century tale of friendship and adventure, The Three Musketeers remains one of the most influential and popular works of French literature. Richard Pevear's introduction examines the controversy surrounding Dumas's literary collaborators and how crucial serialization was to the book's success. This edition also includes notes on the text.
