"The story is a classic for a reason, and Will Hobson has remained true to the original feel of Dumas’ novel. In doing so he allowed the characters to leap from the page and be tangible to the reader. I rarely review a book and fail to find at least one negative, but there is a first time for everything." —Historical Novel Review
