Reviews

"From the gripping first sentence...the excitement never flags in this newly imagined Musketeer adventure. Using Alexandre Dumas' stories as a jumping-off point, Gibbs mixes fact, fantasy and thrills to create a galloping swashbuckler." -- Kirkus Reviews

"[An] action-packed tale." -- Publishers Weekly

"Gibbs' playful, action-packed twist on the classic novel includes plenty of humor as Greg attempts to fit into medieval life. An entertaining premise and high adventure." -- ALA Booklist
