The Red Sphinx, or, The Comte de Moret: A Sequel to The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas
3.0
A sequel to the Three Musketeers, only without any musketeers. This book is a mixed bag. Parts of it are very good, especially the section in which Cardinal Richelieu resigns. And parts of it just meander around. Of course this book doesn't end because Dumas never finished it. If that is a spoiler to you, I'm sorry.
It does come with a completed epistolary short story, "The Dove" that is supposed to resolve the story of the supposed protagonist, who hardly appears in the book, and when he does, who cares. But the short story is very good on its own.
