      I’ve read the book when I was a kid, but if I remember correctly d’Artagnan was not a musketeer, he was having adventures with three guys who were musketeers and the book is from his perspective, so the title makes sense.

      Did you know there’s a movie called The Fifth Musketeer? It stars the four classic musketeers, plus a guy who is at no point a musketeer.

          The French have four-times-twenty-ten-nine problems, but counting ain’t one. That’s why their most read maths book is “The count of Monte Cristo”.

            Au contraire! There is only a single isle of Monte Cristo in that book, and it’s over a thousand pages long, which means it took THAT LONG to count to 1.
