You mean the movie-made-into-two-movies starring Michael York as D'Artagnan, and Richard Chamberlain as Aramis, and Oliver Reed as Athos, and Faye Dunaway as Milady de Winter, and Raquel Welch as Constance Bonacieux? Nope, don't remember that one.

LOL! I'll have you know that I didn't have to consult IMDB for that at all. Those movies hit me that sweet, sweet spot in life, about age 16 or 17, when everything is reelingly fannish and you don't yet have much discrimination or taste. I read the whole series of Dumas novels as a result, and ended up majoring in French later, at least in part so I could read Les Trois Mousquetaires in the original (only to learn, from one of my professors, that really, Dumas Père was not considered literature).

So yeah, D'Artagnan and the boys and I go back a ways.

I should just have time to listen to Broken Homes, then go back through the first three Peter Grant installments, before seeking out book 5. Thanks for the heads up.
