Details

D'Artagnan and Constance defeat the evil machinations of Cardinal Richelieu as the guillotine blade falls on the hapless bourgeoisie. All for one and one for all, as the saying goes! Often hilarious and always thrilling, this explosive tale of kings and queens, diamonds and swords is full of romantic heroes and swashbuckling heroines. But the life of a Musketeer can be more brutal than you think. Enter a world where the most dangerous player is a mysterious female with all the cards in her hand and where outsider D’Artagnan has nothing to show for himself but courage and an open heart. He will do anything to prove himself her equal. But at what price? Join the Unicorn Ensemble as they tumble, chase, rage and gleefully flirt their way through Alexandre Dumas’ magnificent novel at breakneck speed.
