"D'Artagnan quitte sa terre natale pour cherche fortune à Paris. Son rêve est de devenir mousquetaire du roi. Il devient bientôt l'ami inséparable des mousquetaires Athos, Porthos et Aramis, avec lesquels il vivra des aventures inoubliables."--Page [4] of cover.
Set two decades after The Three Musketeers, the story follows Athos, Porthos, Aramis, and D'Artagnan as they embark on a mission to rescue King Charles I from General Oliver Cromwell's impending execution. The plot thickens with the involvement of Mordaunt, the vengeful son of Milady de Winter, who seeks to avenge his mother's death. With treachery and danger at every turn, the Musketeers must navigate Mordaunt's schemes to save the king and themselves from a grim fate.

For those trying to read The Musketeers Saga: I was thoroughly confused by the placement of Ten Years Later in the series. In the original French, there are only three (3) books - 1. The Three Musketeers 2. Twenty Years After and 3. Ten Years Later. Thats it - no more. But when translated, most English editions split the behemoth Ten Years Later into a Trilogy (and some four - which make it all the more confusing!). So the reading list should be 1. The Three Musketeers 2. Twenty Years After and 3a. The Vicomte de Bragelonne 3b. Louise de la Valliere and 3c. The Man in the Iron Mask. Five books - thats the total series! I highly recommend this Classic edition - which has the complete unabridged and annotated version the book. For adventure and pleasure in reading, you cannot beat Alexandre Dumas and his Musketers. (The movies dont hold a candle to the books.)

Terzo e ultimo romanzo del ciclo dei moschettieri, "Il Visconte di Bragelonne", tra l'epopea e il romanzo picaresco, il dramma e la commedia di costume, si svolge nella Francia radiosa di Luigi XIV. I quattro moschettieri d'Artagnan, Athos, Porthos e Aramis ormai avanti negli anni, si ritrovano su sponde diverse, ma il vincolo saldo dell'amicizia non viene meno anche nei momenti di più forte intensità drammatica. Sullo sfondo, intrecciati con le loro vicende, si sviluppano avvenimenti importanti per la storia europea, a cominciare dal perfezionamento dello Stato assoluto in Francia e della restaurazione monarchica in Inghilterra, mentre fioriscono le avventure galanti all'ombra della corte francese e i molteplici amori del re Sole. È famoso l'episodio della Maschera di ferro, che si svolge lungo diversi capitoli dell'opera e di cui sono state fatte numerose versioni cinematografiche. L'introduzione generale e la premessa di questa edizione sono di Francesco Perfetti.
