Readers who've already accepted Greg's time travel and easy embodiment of Three Musketeers character D'Artagnan will find the same accessibility in this seventeenth-century adventure set in France. Greg and the Musketeers foil duplicitous Milady and save young Louis XIII's throne. Like the previous installments, this third book spells out differences between eras, making it well-suited for new time-travel fans.

Books of Wonder series.
Translated by Lowell Bair.
Illustrated by
Tom Kidd.
This handsome gift edition of the swashbuckling classic is illustrated with color plates. The artwork strives for an old-fashioned allure but looks more like paperback romance covers. The book, which includes an afterword profiling the life of Dumas, will mainly be of interest to adults.
