Title: Fine fantasy retelling of a Dumas classic
Product review: The book The Phoenix Guards (and it's sequel 500 Years After) are an excellent tribute to the fine works of Alexander Dumas, being more than loosely based upon The Three Musketeers (originally titled "The Three Guardsmen"). It is based in the world Brust created for his Taltos series, albeit about 1000 years prior. For those who appreciate a good deal of humor along with the Dumas style, and exciting swordplay, this book has the typical Brust quality characters and dialogue.I highly recommend it for anyone who ever loved the French classic.
