Chouans

September 1799, the era of the Directory. General Bonaparte, on whom many are betting, is in the middle of nowhere, in Egypt! Meanwhile, France is suffocated by enemies. The Austrians and Russians, led by Suvorov, are pushing through the Alps. England is in full swing on the maritime frontier. And rebellious Brittany lurks like a thorn in the side of the young Republic. But the army needs soldiers! The stern commander Hulot receives a dangerous order: to recruit a corps of rebel Breton Chouans.

The latest volume of "Masters of Adventure" includes Honoré de Balzac's novel "The Chouans," one of the first examples of the cloak-and-dagger genre in France. The clash of blades and the whistle of bullets on the pages of this book alternate with sharp turns of history, and its heroes constantly scheme, fall in love, seek revenge, and literally tear themselves apart.
