Summary "Venti anni dopo" by Alexandre Dumas and Auguste Maquet is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. This sequel to "The Three Musketeers" follows familiar characters such as d'Artagnan and the intrigues surrounding Cardinal Mazarin in France, amidst political tension and rebellion. The novel promises a blend of adventure, loyalty, and the ever-persistent theme of friendship among the protagonists against a backdrop of historic upheaval. The opening of the novel sets the stage inside the Cardinal's palace, where Cardinal Mazarin reflects on his precarious position following the death of his predecessor, Richelieu. He senses the growing discontent of the French populace, which is further exacerbated by his unpopular taxation policies. As he contemplates his vulnerabilities amid the political chaos, he decides to enlist the help of the brave d'Artagnan, now a lieutenant of the musketeers. The narrative hints at turmoil on the streets of Paris and a brewing revolution, which makes clear that the stakes are high and tensions are mounting, paving the way for the characters’ journey of intrigue and action as they navigate personal and political challenges.
