Short and elegant: a worthy addition to the panoply of memorable swashbucklers and a promising start of a long historical epic. The plot is simple, and the action scenes relatively few. The strong points are the recreation of the Madrid society around 1620 and the evocative language. The story alternates between first person narration by the young page Inigo Balboa and third person view. I wish I was fluent in Spanish and could read this in the original, especially the poems.

I wish I was fluent in Spanish and could read this in the original, especially the poems. Captain Diego Alatriste y Tenorio is set apart from the likes of D'Artagnan, Zorro or Pardaillan by the fact that he is a lot less talkative, has a passion for books and for the verses of Lope de Vega or Quevedo, doesn't claim the moral superiority of the pure knight on a white horse. If he can win a fight through a dirty trick, so be it: 'He was not the most honest or pious of men, but he was courageous'. Okay, so I'm teaching the second in a three course sequence on world theatre history, and we've just been covering Spanish Siglo de Oro theatre (Lope de Vega, Calderon de la Barca, Tirso de Molina, etc.). So I was searching around on you-tube for some good recreation footage of a performance in a corral de comedias, and stumbled across a 2006 film called Alatriste with a very charming scene set in such a theatre.

(At a certain point, I got a strange inkling of Aragorn rather than Aragon-- sure enough, Viggo plays the starring role). Anyhow, I soon learned that this film was based on this popular series of novels, all set in 1620s Spain. I picked up a copy last Friday, and finished it this last Monday. As one might surmise from the fact that my last post to Goodreads commemorating my finishing volume 1 of a massive literary novel (after about 2 years), I have found popular fiction a refreshing change of pace. In fact, there's not much I can say about this novel that wouldn't be a spoiler.

Except the insider's fact that the novel follows the plot conventions of a Siglo de Oro 'capa y espada' (cape and sword) play, and contains various nice bits of period poetry by the likes of Lope and Calderon (and a few apparently by the author as well). Nice swashbuckling entertainment, though not, I hear, as good as some of the author's earlier works that have nothing to do with Alatriste.

I've just finished Dumas' 'The Count of Monte Cristo' and was curious as to how a modern writer would treat this kind of story. I've read two works by Arturo Perez-Reverte ('The Flanders Panel' and 'The Fencing Master' and enjoyed both) and in fact the subject of 'fencing', as related in 'Monte Cristo/Alatriste' with duels, etc., led me directly to 'Captain Alatriste.' I believe this book is the first of at least five more in this series, and it serves a prologue to the rest of the story: here w I've just finished Dumas' 'The Count of Monte Cristo' and was curious as to how a modern writer would treat this kind of story.

I believe this book is the first of at least five more in this series, and it serves a prologue to the rest of the story: here we have a bit of Alatriste's background, we have mysterious men in mask, we have political intrigue, we have questionable identities. In fact, we have many elements similar to the opening elements of 'Monte Cristo'. So, today, authors would give us a series of books: if Dumas were publishing today, he would no doubt have given us at lease five volumes of 'The Count of Monte Cristo.'
