Summary "Ten Years Later" by Alexandre Dumas is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. As the third installment in the D'Artagnan Romances, it continues the adventures of the beloved characters from "The Three Musketeers" and "Twenty Years After," focusing on the aftermath of the tumultuous events surrounding the young King Louis XIV and the dynamics of court intrigue. The narrative follows the fates of key characters like D'Artagnan, Athos, Aramis, and Porthos, who navigate their shifting allegiances and personal ambitions in a politically charged atmosphere. At the start of "Ten Years Later," we are introduced to the setting of Blois in 1660, where the air is filled with expectations of the King's arrival. The opening chapter establishes a backdrop of ennui surrounding Gaston, Monsieur of Orleans, who feels ignored by both the citizens and royal court. D'Artagnan is reintroduced as he prepares to leave his post, and the reader glimpses the unfolding drama as characters like Raoul de Bragelonne and the ladies of the court engage in playful banter. As the narrative progresses, D'Artagnan receives significant news that could reshape the political landscape, setting the stage for the challenges and relationships that will further develop throughout the novel.
