All of the Kindle versions of Dumas' work that I have read to date have been scanned well and appear error-free. Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2015 Verified Purchase Book 4 out of 6 that starts with The Three Musketeers. This one really is tough to read. It focuses on the court of King Louis XIV shortly after he truly becomes king. I guess I'm not into court intrigue much. I keep falling sleep reading it. But, I'm determined to finish it as there are characters and story line items that I've already discovered would have helped me understand The Man in the Iron Mask, had I read the series in order. I just didn't realize there were 6 books to the series so now I'm reading them in the correct order. Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2018 Verified Purchase It's still good, still well written, but it is the slowest of his stories. Not as much happens in this one but it does set up the next part of the story nicely. Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2013 Verified Purchase I like to absorb myself in a story and enjoy the ride.
( 4435 views) Celebrated Crimes (Complete) by Alexandre Dumas pere - Project Gutenberg The contents of these volumes, as well as the motives which led to their inception, are unique. The book was not written for children. The novelist has spared no language -- has minced no words -- to describe the violent scenes of a violent time.

"Necessity is the mother of invention, " is said by Aramis to Fouquet on page 111, when discussing Fouquet's dire financial condition. Is this the creation of the phrase? It's actually the teen-age female characters who, while totally idiotic, provide intrigue and interest in this story. Even the flamboyant brother of Louis gives little color to the tale. And, only the last 75 pages or so are even remotely interesting. Chief of the Musketeers Artagnan is barely present in this so-called sequel to the famous "Musketeer" book. Like all sequels of every medium, this one fails spectacularly. What is humorous is Dumas' sweeping and inaccurate generalizations about women (and men) - ludicrous and highfalutin. But, back in the day, pretension was the by-word, and Dumas captures this unscientific arrogance with a vengeful pen. Sorry to say, it's barely a 3 but given nonetheless due to the audacious and often well-deserved reputation of Dumas.

Dumas has written the d'Artagnan series which was serialised over six years in the 19th Century. I started with The Three Musketeers and will keep going all the way through The Man In The Iron Mask (which I have read before, but hadn't until recently known is the conclusion). Some of the middle books dwell on female characters and romance, and show the way well-placed women were able to play politics within the framework of that society. So it is not all swash-buckling, and the dialogue is witty. I don't know any good reason that it hasn't been produced for TV along the lines of Game of Thrones. Dumas was very clever and prolific. I will probably keep reading his works for a bit. Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2020 Verified Purchase Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2014 Verified Purchase And so the saga of the four musketeers continues. Fascinating description of the conversation between the queen mother and her son Philip about his jealousy. Also interesting description of the rates for the prisoners in the Bastille.
