One must not question the mysterious workings of one's Muse. Hahah. See, if I were to procrastinate, I have learned that something would invariably happen to fuck my shit up, and by that I mean some kind of massive body fail, or maybe Mayan Apocalypse (cannot be discounted).
Dumas is... LONG. And dense. And sexy and exciting ;)
You're wiser than I. thank god for AO3's edit function pre-deadline
Dumas is lots of fun! Rereading I was almost surprised by how upbeat and funny he is, but of course he is, he writes swashbuckling adventure. Have you read any of Steven Brust's fantasy pastiches of his work?
The Phoenix Guards and Five Hundred Years After; he's a fantasy writer with a world called Dragaera, and those two are Musketeer novel send-ups set in that world, down to a satirical version of the pompous narrator's voice. I haven't read either in forever so I can't wholly vouch for how they stand up in 2012, but I really enjoyed them circa 2005 or so.
Oh it's that! I've at least heard of it. Plus, the titles are kind of hilarious in themselves. Have you read "The Club Dumas" by Arturo Perez Reverte? That shit is money (she said eloquently).
