Or has his eye been caught by the sweet and gentle Louise de la Valliere? No one is more anxious to know the answer than Raoul, son of Athos, who loves Louise more than life itself.

"Good, but I didn't like this one as much as The Vicomte de Bragelonne (which I didn't like as much as Twenty Years After). There was lots and lots of intrigue and court politics and too few appearances by the Four; my favorite part was Aramis and d'Artagnan's verbal fencing in Chapter 56."
"This book was so much fun because it involves the gossipy court of Louis XIV in France. It is totally fun. It really does not end, the flows right into the next book, The Man in the Iron Mask."
