Mordaunt three musketeers6/30/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() d’Artagnan agrees to work for Mazarin, in hopes to move up within the Musketeers. Summary: Our novel opens up looking at Cardinal Mazarin, who is secretly married to Queen Anne, or is at least her lover, and his worries about a rebellion in France. Also, everyone seems to miss Richelieu, stating that while he as an ass, he treated France well and ruled well (Mazarin is too stingy with the purse strings). She is not as admirable as she was in the first work, but she is much more powerful and active. For example:Īnne, in this work is a very different character. Our four friends must save a monarch who is being mistreated and they have a personal enemy that has to be dealt with. The storyline follows a similar one as that of the first novel. Another character, while not so important in this book, but I imagine will be very important in the next work is Louis XIV (King from previous book is dead). We have Mordaunt, who is the son of Milady Mazarin, the new Cardinal of France and supposed lover of Queen Anne Charles I, the doomed king of England and Cromwell, the leader of the war against the crown of England and eventual ruler of England during the Commonwealth. There are only four really important new characters. ![]() Many of our characters come back again in this novel which takes place 20 years after our four friends have saved the queen from Richelieu’s conniving plans. This is the sequel to The Three Musketeers (which is apparently a trilogy…who knew?). ![]()
