A Different Dumas

Though it's been a few years since I read this book I have to say that I truly enjoyed it. Perhaps it's not the rollicking spirited style of The Three Musketeers but it's the sweet and yet sad fate of the duke's page that stayed in my head years after. It was a very surprising read - who would have guessed that the page would end up being a woman impersonating a man in order to stay close to her beloved Duke? I like it because it is so different than many of the other books that he wrote and I feel it is done very, very nicely. Mind you, there are a lot of war descriptions but if you enjoy reading Dumas and enjoy a unique little romance then I advise you to definitely check this out. This woman enjoyed it immensely.
