Finally! Seems like I’ve been waiting 125 years for the latest book from…Alexandre Dumas? Aptly titled, The Last Cavalier was originally published in serial form but lost until a scholar discovered a portion of it in the National Library in Paris and set out to piece it together. Publishers Weekly reports that the French edition released to critical acclaim; reviewers say it’s as good as The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo. Pegasus Books, a publishing newcomer, will release the U.S. edition next month.
Does anyone still read this stuff? It’s been a long time since I read a classic adventure, but I sure loved The Prisoner of Zenda and The Scarlet Pimpernel.
