Overview

The swords are older—but the fire still burns. Two decades have passed since d'Artagnan, Athos, Porthos, and Aramis last fought side by side. The glory days of swashbuckling heroism seem behind them, lost to time and political change. But France is once again on the brink of chaos. Civil war erupts, the Fronde rebellion threatens the monarchy, and old enemies rise with new ambitions. When fate reunites the legendary four, they must choose between loyalty to each other and loyalty to a fractured kingdom. Twenty Years After is Alexandre Dumas' powerful sequel to The Three Musketeers, a rich and dramatic novel of aging heroes, deepening conflicts, and the enduring bonds of friendship forged in fire.
