Greetings, mes amis of the King’s Musketeers! Your cheerful editor, Lawrence Ellsworth, is here to announce an all-new weekly Substack to be published in parallel to the Musketeers Cycle!
This is Cinema of Swords, a companion and expansion to my Cinema of Swords hardcover (Applause Books, 2023), which collects over 400 tasty mini-reviews of screen swashbucklers from the Silent Era through The Princess Bride.
The new Substack of the same name builds on that foundation, continuing forward with reviews of swordplay movies and TV shows from the ‘90s to the present. Every week I’ll present two to four illustrated reviews on a common theme written both to inform and to entertain. And note, this is all new material not included in the book!
Best of all, the first one’s free! Check it out at the link below—I think you’ll like it.
