The Three Musketeers (French: Les Trois Mousquetaires) is a novel by Alexandre Dumas, père, first serialized in March–July 1844. Set in the 17th century, and full of intrigue, swordplay, and revenge, it is the story of d'Artagnan, a young nobleman who travels to Paris in hopes of joining the Musketeers, Athos, Porthos, and Aramis, a group of swashbuckling adventurers and inseparable friends who live by the motto "all for one, one for all" ("tous pour un, un pour tous").
His wit and fighting ability make d'Artagnan a welcome addition to their ranks, and together the four young men work to foil the King's evil rival, Cardinal Richelieu. Despite the period setting and constant violence, the story captures and sustains the readers' interest as the Musketeers vanquish the villains.
