Сорок пять by Alexandre Dumas, Alexandre Dumas

3.0

I have just finished a deep immersion of Dumas, reading all of the D'Artagnan Romances, The Count of Monte Cristo and the Valois Romances. The Valois Romances series is my least favorite of them; the Musketeers adventures are at the top of my favorites list and the Count isn't far behind. The Valois series started out very well with Margot, but ended a bit short with the Forty-Five. I lost interest in the characters (while still loving Chicot) until the very last bits of the book. Even then, I felt there was so much more that could have been told.
