Turns out sequels were a bad idea even then. Twenty Years after is the novel that continues the life of D'Arthagnan and his three friends as they ride together once again (of course along with their servants) to save their country. However, this time they are older and not nearly as funny.
A lot of the book is missing the humour that made the first book one of my favourite reads. The comradeship does not actually begin for a hundred plus pages and even then, something seems to be missing.
The characters are mostly the same as they are before except that they cannot make you laugh like they used to. The plot is nothing particularly interesting and there are bits of stories dragging on for far too long in between.
Overall, a person who loved the first book might not for the most part, like this one as much as he expected to.
