Starts extremely slowly and (the version I read, book one of the four-book edition) cuts off right in the middle of things such that you're going to want to move straight on to Ten Years Later, but d'Artagnan is still a fun protagonist and once the book gets around to focusing on him it's very entertaining.
Omg it was so hard to finish! It kept going on and on and on!

This is the first part of an incredibly lengthy book divided into three separate books, so it's kind of best to view it as such and not as a standalone novel. A lot happens in this 24 hour book, but simultaneously, not much happens in a way? There's a lot of dialogue between dull characters, but of course whenever our Musketeers are involved it is so captivating.
For a book named after the Vicomte, he appears to not have much to do especially in the first half-ish which mainly revolves around d’Artagnan and Athos and Charles II as they try to restore him to the throne of England. Then there's a lot about the rivalry between Nicolas Fouquet and Jean-Baptiste Colbert which I could not for the life of me pay much attention to.
Still, it had plenty of intriguing moments, a few swashbuckling moments and great dialogue and moments with the Musketeers.
