Amidst the turmoil of religious and civil wars that plagued the reign of Louis XIII and Anne of Austria, the king and his first minister, Richelieu, battle to establish the authority of the French monarchy. Opposed by the nobles and the Huguenots, the King’s Musketeers suppress the turmoil and form the foundation for royal absolutism while overcoming France’s enemies in the Thirty Years’ War. Meanwhile Louis demonstrates his power by an ambitious building program, renovating the Louvre and Tuileries palaces in extravagant style.
All the kingdom waits eagerly for Anne to perform her duty… ensuring success by producing an heir! In their unhappy marriage, bringing together man and wife may prove as difficult as uniting Louis’ fractured realm.
While based loosely on Dumas’ work, this novel hopes to recreate the authentic history of the period… emphasizing the true struggles of life in 17th century France.
Louis – the man who united France
Anne - the most beautiful woman in Europe
