The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas

The story starts with a narators opinion of our character. Then it talks about his horse. Then the story gets more exciting, the main character challenges a stranger to a duel. It is shown very early that d'Artagnan has a very hot temper. That combined with his mission to find Monsieur de Treville is basically what the first chapters are. His quick temper gets him in three challenges with three musketeers all within a few hours. His next day starts at 12 and then he has the next fight at 1 then the next at 2. So if he survives them he will be very sore and very tired.

I felt like it was very slow to start out but once it started it really got going. I think that I will really enjoy this book and really cannot wait to continue reading it.
