On the first day of a family trip to Paris, Greg Rich?s parents disappear. They?re not just missing from the city?they?re missing from the century. So, Greg does what any other fourteen-year-old would do: He travels through time to rescue them.
Greg soon finds out that his family history is tied to the legendary Three Musketeers?who, weirder still, are real. But when he meets them, they?re kids his age, and they?ll only live long enough to become true heroes if he can save them. To rescue his parents, Greg must assume the identity of D?Artagnan, a young Musketeer in training, and unite with Athos, Porthos, and Aramis?but a powerful enemy is doing everything possible to stop him from succeeding.
For fans of Pendragon, the 39 Clues, and The Ranger?s Apprentice, The Last Musketeer is an exciting series that both stands on its own as a rollicking adventure and acts as a prequel to Alexandre Dumas? classic Three Musketeers. Featuring a contemporary hero set against a 17th century Parisian backdrop, The Last Musketeer delivers swordfights, swashbuckling, and non-stop thrills.
