It follows the standard of all his works - intrigue, romance, doom - but I found the story of Baron de Canolles captivating. It is certainly a book that I will always have in my collection, and will read and re-read. If you are a Dumas fan, you should really give it a try. ( )no reviews | add a review

| Book description |
|
Set in the same period as his best-known novel, Alexandre Dumas’s “forgotten masterpiece” (Le Monde) features two steely and preternaturally modern heroines fighting on opposite sides of the wars that ravaged seventeenth-century France. An unabashed page-turner, humorous, dramatic, and crackling with panache, this new English translation—the first in more than 100 years—shows Dumas at the peak of his powers.
