good story, usually decent readers


(3 stars)

Mverall, the story is a lot of fun. Most of the readers do a great job. Unfortunately, there are a couple that are incredibly awful to listen to (odd pauses, weird pronunciation, strange emphasis/lack thereof, etc.), which detracts from the overall experience. If I could pick from a list of volunteers for each chapter, it would increase the book to a 5 star listen.

good readers, captivating story


(4 stars)

the readers all did a nice job. the recording quality is good. the excitement in this book is not as well written (details) as the first book. also it gets a little confusing at times and some things never came clear for me even when i relistened to sections. but overall i found this book to be a good sequel and look forward to reading the next.

pure adventure - noble men


(4 stars)

I really enjoyed the adventures of this noble heroes, but at times it was difficult to identify the different characters because of the varying pronunciation of French names. thank you for your time, readers!

Wonderful


(5 stars)

The best historical fiction I have ever heard. The moving plot kept me engaged thru all 90 chapters, and most of the readers did a good job narrating it.

20 yrs after


(5 stars)

Delightful!


(5 stars)

Very entertaining and anothwr grand adventure by A. Dumas!

Waaah!


(5 stars)

I didn't want this one to end. Sequels generally are an embarrassment to the original works, but _Twenty Years After_ would work as well even if there had been no _Three Musketeers_. It stands on it's own. The story lines don't rehash _The Three Musketeers_. It has it's own pace & rhythm. The 4 definitely have matured & each has grown in his own way. I like this one better than the original. The readers range from good to excellent. All in all, good stuff.

good


(5 stars)

its good to see the musketeers fighting against another evil cardinal. this book has a lot of what i loved about the first book but doesnt quite live up the the first. it just goes down hill from here though. if you do not want to hate this series, do not read past this book as the series ends very poorly with many plots never concluded and many of the characters we love dying in the stupidest ways.
