Taking The Bastille (1910)

This is the fourth book in the Marie Antoinette Romances series by Dumas. The series includes Balsamo the Magician, The Mesmerist’s Victim, The Queen’s Necklace, Taking the Bastille, The Hero of the People, The Royal Life Guard and The Countess de Charny. In Taking the Bastille, Balsamo is practically non-existent—but he has a new student, and you’ll never guess who it is. This new student, along with a few new characters, will be very important in the events that lead to the fall of the Bastille. King Louis XVI, Marie Antoinette, and the Countess de Charny are all older, if not necessarily wiser—and the seeds are being sown for the fall of the monarchy. In typical Dumas style, it’s not always easy to tell who are the heroes and who are the villains. The heroes are certainly flawed, and the villains are certainly powerful.
