Description

The past, present, and future are all at stake in this final book in the thrilling time travel adventure trilogy from New York Times bestselling author Stuart Gibbs. This middle grade novel is an excellent choice for tween readers in grades 5 to 7, including for summer reading and during homeschooling. It's a fun way to keep your child entertained and engaged while not in the classroom.

Greg Rich should feel invincible. After all, he's traveled through time, become one of the legendary Musketeers, and--most recently--prevented the Spanish army from attacking Paris.

Instead, he and his friends are languishing in prison, having fallen into a trap set by Milady and the Prince of Condé. But Greg didn't come to the seventeenth century to sit in a jail cell and await execution.

He, Aramis, Athos, and Porthos need to get to King Louis, who is in immediate danger of being overthrown by the scheming prince. To save the king and history itself, the boys must break out of prison, defend Louis, and return Greg and his parents to the twenty-first century before it's too late.

Hornbook

Readers who've already accepted Greg's time travel and easy embodiment of Three Musketeers character D'Artagnan will find the same accessibility in this seventeenth-century adventure set in France. Greg and the Musketeers foil duplicitous Milady and save young Louis XIII's throne. Like the previous installments, this third book spells out differences between eras, making it well-suited for new time-travel fans.
