About this listen

 It is May 1660 and the fate of nations is at stake. Mazarin plots, Louis XIV is in love, and Raoul de Bragelonne, son of Athos, is intent on serving France and winning the heart of Louise de la Valliere.

D'Artagnan, meanwhile, is perplexed by a mysterious stranger, and soon he learns that his old comrades already have great projects in hand. Athos seeks the restoration of Charles II, while Aramis, with Porthos in tow, has a secret plan involving a masked prisoner and the fortification of the island of Belle-Ile.

D'Artagnan finds a thread leading him to the French court, the banks of the Tyne, the beaches of Holland, and the dunes of Brittany.

Critic reviews

"Alternately melodramatic, sentimental, humorous, wordly, and almost always absorbing." ( Irish Times)
"I would sit down with The Vicomte de Bragelonne for a long, silent, solitary, lamplit evening by the fire." (Robert Louis Stevenson)

The story, descriptions and dialogue are superb. A master of adventure this is Dumas at his best.

Simon Vance is an intelligent and studied narrator with a versatility of voice that makes the most of the large cast of characters (although the dashing Dartagnan, I'm not sure should sound quite such a yokel or De Guish sound so old).

Excellent!

Great story. An insight into the French court. I will read this book again. I will have to get the books in the right order next time.

Continuing on the path. It is great to listen to this wonderful story sequentially and encourages me to repeat The Man in the Ironman again, having listened first. Story is wonderful. The narration is very good with several voices but in my preference still does not reach that provided by Bill Holmwood, who provided for first and the last book. I wish he had provided for all books, giving a continuity of seamless experience.

Another excellent book.
