Twenty Years Later. 2 Volume Set

The novel "Twenty Years Later" is a brilliant continuation of the famous trilogy by the master of historical-adventure novels, Alexandre Dumas. Since the brave musketeers saved the queen's honor by thwarting the machinations of Cardinal Richelieu and his treacherous spy—the beautiful Milady Winter—twenty years have passed. Time has ruthlessly scattered friends—each now has his own life and fate. But one day their tranquility comes to an end: Fronde is raging in France, and in England, the monarch Charles I is about to be executed, and once again duty calls Athos, Porthos, Aramis, and d'Artagnan to serve the crown and protect the interests of their country. The friends plunge into the thick of events, but to their great astonishment, they find themselves on opposite sides of the barricades. However, the motto of their youth, "One for all, and all for one!" triumphs over political differences, and the brave quartet, against the will of Cardinal Mazarin, rushes to save the noble King Charles I from the scaffold. The main trial on their path will be the confrontation with the son of Milady, the embittered and vengeful Mordaunt… The book is illustrated by the master of book graphics Anatoly Zinovyevich Itkin
