Publisher Description

Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Ésta es una obra histórica y documentada sobre la vida de un hombre que, en tiempos de Luis XVI, Delfín de Francia, vivió encerrado en una máscara de Fierro y sin hablar con nadie jamás, so pena de muerte. Ésta es una investigación sobre el verdadero hombre al que le tocó tan desafortunado destino, que tanta intriga ha causado a lo largo de los años y los siglos. Todavía no se sabe con certeza quién fué este hombre, pero aquí el autor tratará de esclarecer los hechos y recrear al personaje histórico que tanta polémica ha causado a través los siglos.

Es una historia conmovedora y emotiva sobre una de las vidas más tristes que ha visto la tierra.

""....Mask" is the conclusion of the d'Artagnan Romances and the final adventure of Athos, Porthos, Aramis, d'Artagnan, and Raoul (Athos's son). If you want to see an evil king dethroned and replaced by his benevolent identical twin, rent or buy the movie with Leonardo DiCaprio as Louis XIV. There is in this book a twin, but his portion of the book is almost irrelevant. Instead, "....Mask" relates the political maneuvering, treachery, and romantic hanky-panky in and about the court of Louis XIV. Always in the foreground is the love and respect the musketeers have for each other. This novel is kind of dark and somewhat sad. There are other volumes, between "The Three Musketeers" and "....Mask", and perhaps I should have read those as well. This story is every bit as good, and perhaps better than "The Three Musketeers", but in my opinion, the masterpiece of Alexandre Dumas is "The Count of Monte Christo.""

    " It was fun to read a swashbuckling classic that explored themes of honor and friendship with deliberately purple prose. It would have been more fun if I had already known and cared about the characters. And maybe that would have made the ending more satisfying as well. "

    " It was at the same time very entertaining and annoying. I loved how some characters are presented but the exaggeration in giving details bored me a bit. The end was surprising and i'm satisfied with that. "

    " Another amazing adventure with four truly memorable characters. It is so nice to meet them again in this story, and discover how different things are in the novel when compared to the film. Loved it. Dumas never disappoints. "

    " I would have given this four and a half stars if possible, because it is really good, but not quite as enjoyable as its prequels. For a fuller review, see the Three Musketeers. "

    " Convoluted dense writing, overwrought political intrigues, bitterness and hopelessness. The machinations of power wins out over good and integrity as the politically shrewd stave off death the longest. "

    " I love Dumas. This book is a little different than the movie versions. They were definitely cavalier. If you want the romantic view - watch the movie. If you want the (probably) more truthful version of French soldiers, read the book. haha "
