Helpful Score: 2

This definitely did remind me of the Three Musketeers, in writing style (flowery French Romantic; fun but a bit overblown if you're not in the mood) and plot (four friends become Guardsmen and fall into the middle of several court intrigues while looking for adventure, which they certainly find) and humor (I'd call it "saucy"). The time is quite a bit earlier than that of Brust's "Vlad Taltos" series, but we do meet a few long-lived Dragaerans who we will hear of again...
