In the original novel they defeated Milady, a formidable foe; now they need to face her vengeful son Mordaunt, as well as countering the machinations of the sinister Cardinal Mazarin. The Man in the Iron Mask: The Man in the Iron Mask is the final episode in the cycle of novels featuring Dumas' celebrated foursome of D'Artagnan, Athos, Porthos and Aramis, who first appeared in The Three Musketeers. Some thirty-five years on, the bonds of comradeship are under strain as they end up on different sides in a power struggle that may undermine. Twenty Years After: Their adventures also take them to England, where Cromwell is about to topple Charles I. Meanwhile, they must overcome the obstacles which the passing of time has placed between them. Rediscovering strength in unity, they fight for Queen and country. The Three Musketeers: One of the most celebrated and popular historical romances ever written, The Three Musketeers tells the story of the early adventures of the young Gascon gentleman, D'Artagnan and his three friends from the regiment of the King's Musketeers - Athos, Porthos and Aramis. The Count of Monte Cristo: The story of Edmund Dantes, self-styled Count of Monte Cristo, is told with consummate skill. The victim of a miscarriage of justice, Dantes is fired by a desire for retribution and empowered by a stroke of providence. In his campaign of vengeance, he becomes an anonymous agent of fate. Review: Fantastic collection - Got this boxset of 5 of Dumas greatest works for £23.99.m, absolute bargain. The artwork on the front covers of the books are brilliant. The font is a decent size and it has broken up paragraphs not just blocks of texts which can be hard to concentrate on if like me your eye sight is not so great. I had only ever read The Three Musketeers as teenager about 15 years ago so to reread it and also get 4 other of his Musketeers based books for the price is great. Highly recommend purchasing this boxset. Would also make a fantastic gift. Review: Perfectly suited to my love of great stories and classic literature - Dumas' classics are a great read, and having them all in such a beautifully packaged set makes it even better.
