      Dumas is great at plot twists, but the "four" musketeers were all jerks.
    • 1/5
      I just couldn't finish it. D'Artagnan is a swaggering ass (or at least he starts out that way), and Dumas writes so well that it's like actually having a douchebag right there in the room with you. I don't need to read a book for that experience; I can just leave my house.
    • 5/5
      The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas is a long but very good novel; especially in storytelling. I liked how it was full of sword fighting, romance, adventure, and religion. I was surprised to see a lot about the French Wars of Religion (1562-1598) mentioned ad how the Catholics, Huguenots, and Puritans played into the novel. Lastly, I liked how Athos, Porthos, and Aramis were more like early versions of superheroes than just average characters.
    • 5/5
      Tearing through this book in a matter of six days (while working full time) i can easily say that this sordid tale of intrigue, deception, loyalty and love holds one of the most evil and mischevious female characters in literary history, Lady de Winter (otherwise known as Milady for first two-thirds of the book). The death and chaos that she leavs in the wake of her porcelain and dainty feet astounds the reader and makes you pray for vengence. I will say i was a little surprised at how the vengence was timed and what was allowed to take place before it, but it just goes to show some of the differences between todays writers and those of years past (about 150 years past to be exact). I personally loved this book and i will most likely find more by Dumas to devour with pleasure.
    • 5/5
      With no spoilers im gonna say, This has a tad of mystery a tad of romance, a scoundrel or 2, a hero and a heroine, morals both right and wrong. Its everything all wrapped into one, Laughter and tears! A true classic good for any book nerd!


    • 4/5
      This is so absurd, it has to be a satire. Most characters demonstrate how deplorable humans can be to each other. Even among this cast, Athos is the clear winner for most terrifying psychopath. But, I like dark - particularly how the casual cruelty was often more horrific than the intentional. And gotta love that after all that violence, death, and destruction - the "heroes" end up in bed with the "villain". But what an endearing story of adventure and friendship! ROFLMAO.#drunkreview---Then, casting a last glance at the handsome young man, who was barely twenty-five years old, and whom he left lying there, insensible and perhaps dead, d'Artagnan heaved a sigh over the strange destiny that leads men to destroy each other for the interests of people who are strangers to them and who often do not even know that they exist.And Planchet burst into tears, we will not venture to say whether from terror, on account of the threats made against him, or from the emotion of seeing four friends so closely united. [… in threatening him]The two women embraced each other for a moment. To be sure, if Milady's strength had been equal to her hatred, Mme Bonacieux would never have left that embrace alive. But, not being able to smother her, she smiled at her.
    • 3/5
      Lots of action in this novel. I can see why it would appeal to young boys, but not so much to young girls. For one thing, the women are all simply things to be exploited despite the musketeers' professions of love towards these women. D'Artagnan's 'true love' is Constance (most inappropriate of names) Bonacieux who promptly drops her husband when D'Artagnan comes into the picture, and his love for her doesn't stop him from sleeping around with others including Milady and her maid. Portos also woos a married woman so that she would provide for his expenses. None of the musketeers are particularly virtuous and basically pick a fight with almost everyone they happen to run across, killing people right and left with very little provocation. Milady de Winter is the most interesting of all the characters, she is sly, manipulative and evil; and in many ways smarter than any of the musketeers. It was always enjoyable to read about her exploits. Overall, it is a pretty good adventure novel and not much more. The Count of Monte Cristo was a deeper, more interesting novel.
    • 4/5
      A six episode audio drama adaptation of the classic novel. A really excellent listen full of drama, romance, and plenty of swashbuckling. All of the cast do an excellent job of distinguishing themselves in their roles and listening to this version has had me add the original print version to my want to read list.
    • 4/5
      Not all old books have held up--The Three Musketeers has. Yes, you can tell Dumas was paid by the word, but even so, wow, could he write. The book abounds with action, adventure, wit, and romance. I love how distinctly he wrote the characters--men and women--and made them far more realistic and nuanced than I expected. (Alas, movies versions make the cardinal into a mustache-twirling evil dude, and he's not written that way at all.)This finishes up my personal challenge to read a classic book every month of the year. I plan to read more of Dumas in 2020!
    • 4/5
      This was A Book Over A Hundred Years Old on my reading list. My Barnes and Nobel Classics version came in just under 700 pages, so it's a lengthy slog from a time when writers were paid by the line. Given this was Dumas' revenue model, this is a surprisingly readable book with an entertaining, if meandering plot, and some suspect characters - even the good guys perform some questionable (albeit satisfying) acts. I was clipping along through the first 500 pages, then got bogged down when the femme fatale turned into Hans Gruber, committing super-crimes under everyone's nose for the flimsiest of reasons. In this case she doesn't crave money but revenge and she proves as unbelievably difficult to bring down as Hans did.Dumas drops plenty of commentary on human relationships throughout the novel, many of which would fit easily into a contemporary novel were such authorial intrusions still en vogue. If you approach this book from the perspective that it was serialized as entertainment in a newspaper and set quite a few of your modern beliefs aside (you don't kill perfect strangers in duels over perceived slights would be a good place to start), this is a fun book with more than its share of the typical coincidences critical to grand adventures from this period of literature, particularly the number of times the good guys and bad guys run into each other by chance in some corner or other of France and the plethora of near-death experiences of D'Artagnan. I'm curious why this book was titled as it was, given that D'Artagnan is actually the protagonist without whom we have no story. Although I struggled with Milady's imprisonment and escape, it's interesting to see how powerful and cunning Dumas made a woman in his tale. In the end she gets her just deserts at the hands of the so-called heroes in an act of vigilante justice that is equally abhorrent and applause-worthy.A better than average read when you want lighter fare that reads a lot like a Wild West novel.
    • 5/5
      Read for the first time. I am pretty sure I had never read it but probably saw various movies that were based on the book. The story of 4 men, three musketeers and a young man, d'Artagran who is an intern. The setting is France during the 1600s. The novel, while an adventure and romance, has a political setting. It is a time of religious upheaval with Luther and Calvin. Louis XIII is the king of France and Richelieu is cardinal who had control over the government and power over Louis XIII. In this setting, the story is of the three musketeers Athos, Porthos, and Aramis. The musketeers and d'artagran are caught up in a political conspiracy launched by the Cardinal. This is a an enjoyable, entertaining story as an adventure ought to be.
    • 2/5
      I almost put it down in the beginning, despite the better translation, when the only thing that happens is d'Artagnan getting into duels with every single person he meets. The story did become interesting after a while, but the characters really weren't (with the exception of Milady).

      And can you use the term "fridging" for a book that takes place prior to the invention of the refrigerator?
    • 4/5
      The plot was more intrigue, perhaps like a political spy novel of a sort, than swashbuckling, but very entertaining, nevertheless.Dumas starts a bit less than the first quarter of the book introducing his characters in humorous fashion. Then, it becomes steadily more serious with each passing page, and from the humorous to the grave and dark, while the characters seem to grow, especially D'Artagnan, from irresponsible seeming like children to men handling the affairs and maintaining their character as men, proud, yet honest men. A character study each person would be quite interesting.The ending was a bit gruesome.Dumas' writing is genius and conveys much of the sense of that is most of all challenged in the story is a man's honor. It inspires one to accept honor as something of value to die for; and, it's anonymous translation, whenever the book is put down, inspires one to speak in proper English.
    • 5/5
      D'Artagnan, Gascon on his unlikely yellow nag gets into a spot of bother with a stranger in Meung. The latter flees with a beautiful lady. D'Artagnan goes to Paris and obtains an audience with M. De Treville, the captain of the King's musketeers who need to be differentiated from the Cardinal's (Richelieu) musketeers.He bumps into three musketeers - literally - Athos, Porthos and Aramis and after petty incidents is challenged to duel with each of them, The duels do not take place as the four team up against some of the Cardinal's men and wreak havoc. I'm out of breath already!
    • 2/5
      After re-reading it (read it back when I was in grade 4 for a book report), I decided to give it 2 stars. I did not like any of the characters maybe except for Lady De Winter (who is smart, beautiful and evil villaneiss). The musketeers are arrogant, rowdy and unprofessional for my taste.
    • 4/5
      The adventures of d'Artagnan after he leaves home to join the Musketeers of the Guard where he befriends the three most formidable musketeers of the age and gets involved in the many intrigues of the state. This is a favorite of mine since childhood, but this was my first read of the full version (having only read abridged versions for children previously) and it is quite long (and has numerous footnotes), but just as fun and exciting as I was hoping it would be. I absolutely love the exaggerated characters who are so ludicrously gung-ho about their causes, whether they are heroes or villains; Milady deserves a special mention since she is so uncommonly wicked that you can't help but laugh at all her schemes. My copy is a Pevear translation, which is faithful, but perhaps not as elegant as other translations.
    • 4/5
      The classic swashbuckler; I would have to give this edition a mere four stars, however, because there were elements of the translation that I found rather clumsy and which jarred. Only elements, though; most of the book is an unmitigated delight.
    • 4/5
      At first I was very disgusted with this story. The young protagonist had no sympathy from me. In fact, I seriously considered not finishing the story. I am very glad I persisted though. The second part of the book had the best evil female I've ever read. It was an instruction on how to corrupt the incorruptible. I never did warm up to D'Artagnon, but Athos and M'Lady could be a book in themselves.
    • 5/5
      This is a re-read of this most famous of Dumas novels, featuring the derring do of the title characters and their young friend and would be fellow musketeer D'Artagnan, one of the most famous characters in French literature. I remembered almost no detail from my first read nearly twenty years ago. While this is light-hearted and quite comical in places, there are also dramatic passages, episodes of cruelty and horror, and a splendid female villain. The illustrations are well done too. This is a splendidly enjoyable novel that can appeal to readers of all ages.
    • 3/5
      Six-word review: Swashbuckling adventure of intrigue and swordplay.Comments:In among the duels and melees, the politics and warfare of royalty versus religion, and the passing of notes to confidantes and traitors, there are numerous thoughtful passages to lend substance to this action melodrama. A Jesuit warns Aramis: "You're touching on the controversial subject of Free Will, which is a deadly snare." (page 325) And Aramis tells the hero of the piece: "'Take my advice, d'Artagnan: when you're in trouble, hide it. Silence is the only refuge of the unhappy. Don't let others into the secrets of your heart; prying folk feed on your tears as vampires feed on human blood.'" (page 332)One chapter (page 696) actually begins: "It was a dark and stormy night." Wow!I thought the novel seemed to peter out at the end, or maybe I just didn't understand the politics of switching sides. It seemed to cancel out the theme of loyalty that had permeated the story from the beginning. But it was a lively romance anyway, with very villainous villains.
    • 5/5
      I'd been looking for a good modern translation and this is it. The text flows well and I really appreciated the historical references at the back (though I'd have loved them even more if they were footnotes and I didn't have to keep flicking to the back pages).The story races along. The musketeers are far from being the most ethical of men by modern standards, but we love them anyway. (The TV version tones down Porthos's love of expensive clothes, Athos's drinking, everyone's gambling, etc.)
    • 5/5
      Some classic novels are hard to slog through. This is an adventure tale that more than lives up to its billing. Although it is a long book, the author doesn't waste a lot of time with long passages where nothing is happening. This is a real page turner, with incredible heroes, and really despicable villains.
    • 3/5
      Good read for young people.
    • 5/5
      Loved it, of course! Really, how could you not!
    • 4/5
      It's always interesting to read the original of such an extremely well-known story to see what the differences between the actual book and the popular consciousness are....

      A few things that surprised me...

      "All for one and one for all" - is only said in the book once, and is not made a terribly big deal of!

      Our 'heroes' are really not that heroic. They're constantly starting fights over no cause at all, gambling irresponsibly, being generally lying, deceitful and adulterous - and D'Artagnan can't even be bothered to pay his rent to the guy whose wife he's seducing! (All four musketeers are perennially down-and-out, and can't hang on to a gift or cash past the next tavern....) Of course, all of this makes the book *much* funnier and more entertaining than it would be if they were more upright men...

      I'm pretty sure that in at least one movie version of the story, it's stated outright that Lady de Winter was branded for the crime of murder. Not so! In the book, (at least from a modern perspective) her initial crimes don't really seem to warrant her husband trying to kill her by hanging her naked from a tree. Sure, she gets really evil *later* - but you have to have some sympathy for her situation! (At least I did!)

      It takes a really long time to get into the main part of the story - I got the sense that, since this was published as a serial, Dumas was initially just sending his characters on random exploits, and only once the story had gained some popularity, embarked on the more complex, involved, continuing story, going back and weaving in bits that had been mentioned earlier... I don't know if that's historically accurate, but it's the feeling I got...

      Definitely worth reading....
    • 5/5
      WARNING: This book is highly addictive. It contains extremely high levels of swashbuckling. There are also some very funny scenes. Dogtagnan's first meeting with his landlord is particularly well done. The construction is impressive: it's manages to be episodic without losing sight of the plot.
    • 3/5
      Now that I have finally read this book, I think I understand France a bit better.
    • 4/5
      The Kings Musketeers, Athos, Porthos, Aramis, and their dealings to protect Queen Anne from the Cardinal and his spies most prominently, Milady. With the help of the young d'Artagnan who very much wants to be one of the Musketeers the adventures come forth. The first half of the book tends to drag a bit but by the middle to the end was a pleasant read.
    • 3/5
      Took me quite a while to get through, mainly because I spent a lot of time trying to read it with white text on a black background (which sent me to sleep when I turned the light off in bed at night).Not a time period I'm very familiar with so I wasn't so sure about what the political tensions were about.There were some quite funny bits, especially in the dialogue between the Musketeers.Didn't much like d'Artagnan at the start but he grew on me through the book and by the end I felt quite sorry for him.
    • 3/5
      2007, Blackstone Audiobooks, Read by Simon VanceI love classics and read them often, but The Three Musketeers was not one I could get drawn into. I read The Count of Monte Cristo several years ago, loved it, and it remains one of my all-time favourites. So I hoped to revisit that experience with the first of Dumas’ D’Artagnan Romances. But it was not to be. I felt completely indifferent towards the characters: D’Artanan and the musketeers alike, as well as the scheming Cardinal and Milady.I cannot not recommend Dumas and this well-loved classic, but I will say that readers who loved [The Count] will not necessarily have a similar experience with this one. The audio version is narrated by the inimitable Simon Vance, so it certainly has that in its favour.
