Publisher's summary

Swashbuckling classic adventure, with an updated twist placing Milady in the role of narrator.

Young D'Artagnan arrives in Paris to join the King's elite guards but almost immediately finds he is duelling with some of the very men he has come to swear allegiance to - Porthos, Athos and Aramis, inseparable friends: the Three Musketeers.

Soon part of their close band, D'Artagnan's loyalty to his new allies puts him in the deadly path of Cardinal Richlieu's machinations. And when the young hero falls in love with the beautiful but inaccessible Constance, he finds himself in a world of murder, conspiracy and lies, with only the Musketeers to depend on.

Crazy Good Listen

Individual voices brings out each character. Very easy on the ears to follow the story

Extremely Entertaining!

I love it! One of the best lines, and there were many, was "Ambushed in our own ambush!"

Thoroughly enjoyed!

Just wish it was longer! And I’m not saying that because it was too short. It was well acted.

Classically entertaining

As I have never read the original novel, I thought when I chose this “book“ that it would be just that – the novel itself by Dumas. Instead, it was very much like a classic 1930s radio show, with very well trained voice actors playing all the characters. Overall, it was very well done, thoroughly entertaining, and held my attention all the while. Sometimes the voices were a bit similar to each other but one could follow the storyline quite well. I would recommend this presentation for anyone who likes entertainment in the noir style.

A cast instead of one narrator

what I like about this is they had different people read different parts. I don't mind one narrator but sometimes it can get confusing on who they're voicing.

Amusing

It was played for farce and did it rather well. It was amusing, but nothing that I’ll remember later.
