Things that happened since I last complained about the fact that it's all about hot women and awesome fighting men who can alone win fights against hordes of enemies:
- a guy fought against a horde of enemies and won
- in the last moment an evil guy appeared who brought a pistol to a sword-fight and shot our awesome hero
- I did not really care about the guy being dead because he had zero character
- guy was not dead after all because evil guy just hit his weapon-belt (does this even work? I mean film and books love the 'saved by book/amulet/snuffbox/gingerbread-heart in breast-pocket'-trope but it doesn't really work, at least with modern weapons...would it work with 17th century pistols?)
- I did not really care about the guy being not dead because he had zero character
- the Cardinal ordered one of his men to get a certain document
- said men kills a lot of people to get it
- Cardinal seems to be not amused when he learns about the bodycount...perhaps he had hoped his man could get it by aggressive sock-knitting or whatever
- Athos appeared. He does not deserve to be in this book
- more fights
- more hot women
There's still 40% left
