Abstract:
Queen Anne has been kidnapped, and France simply would not want another devastating war. How long can Laurel and the musketeers conceal the news from King Louis XIII while they attempt a rescue mission, and what happens to France, Laurel and the musketeers if they fail? “The musketeer dashed off down the corridor, Yvette watching, holding tight to the gun as if it were her lifeline. ‘God, please, let Aramis come back soon.’ She was not brave enough for this. Already shock was setting in . . . She would have called Aramis back, but he was already gone.”

I just finished reading “For Honor” and “Gambit” by Kat Jaske. Both books were great with well-described characters and scenes, fantastic adventure, amazingly recognizable human traits, and exciting plots. The stories are told chronologically, and Jaske keeps track of each person, item, place, and situation in great detail. You ask: “what happened to the ring”? Like the best of mysteries, she does not forget to tell you later… Likewise, every person, their actions, and every situation are accounted for. I recommend reading “For Honor” first (it’s the first in the series), and then “Gambit”, for better background of the characters.
The stories are movie-material in my opinion, and that is a compliment. The cast of characters, the fast evolving story line, and to-the-point descriptions of scenes, are all woven into a plausible mystery drama. I admire the imagination of the writer, and can't wait to read the next book in the series.
