Synopsis "Veinte Anos Despues (Tomo 2): Continuacion de los Tres Mosqueteros (in Spanish)"

Otro gran clasico de aventuras. Es el ano 1648, veinte anos despues de las aventuras de Los tres mosqueteros. La historia de Francia ha cambiado: han muerto Luis XIII y el cardenal Richelieu; la reina Ana de Austria asume la regencia del pais debido a la minoria de edad de Luis XIV; el nuevo primer ministro es el cardenal Julio Mazarino, de origen italiano, quien mantiene una no tan secreta relacion con la reina; y nace el movimiento revolucionario conocido como la Fronda. D'Artagnan se ha quedado estancado en el grado de teniente de mosqueteros, y hace anos que no ve a sus amigos, hasta que un dia Mazarino le confiere una mision: sacar de La Bastilla a un prisionero, que resulta ser su antiguo enemigo, pero ahora amigo, el conde de Rochefort.

Alexandre Dumas is one of the most prolific and popular authors from France. He was born in 1802 in the city of Villers-Cotterets, and soon moved to Paris to work as a secretary for the Duke of Orléans. There, he completed his education on his own and began to take an interest in writing.
He started by writing plays, and then moved on to poems and long stories. However, his real success did not come until 1844, the year he released the work that would catapult him to fame: The Three Musketeers. The serial publication of this novel brought him a huge sum of money, but it also meant countless hours of work, many collaborators, and the production of up to eighty installments to meet the growing public demand.
After the publication of The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo, Dumas amassed a great fortune. However, his hedonistic nature led him to squander all he had earned and he soon found himself forced to exile in Belgium to escape his French creditors.
The Count of Monte Cristo, the pinnacle of the author's narrative, is considered one of the greatest adventure novels of all time.
