La Reine Margot (A.K.A "Queen Margot", "Marguerite de Valois") is the first novel of The Last Valois series written in 1845 by Alexandre Dumas, père. The series next books are La Dame de Monsoreau and Les Quarante-Cinq.During the reign of Charles IX and the French Wars of Religion, the throne of France had several suitors and every one try their hardest to keep it. Marguerite de Valois, better known as Margot, marries Henry de Navarre to bring peace to this chaotic country. Margot, who does not love Henri, begins a passionate affair with La Môle, a noble Huguenot, who was saved by her during the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre.Beside the famous Huguenot decimation, the plot contains murders by poisoning, court intrigues and several attempts of murder.It has been adapted to a theatrical film in 1994 with Isabelle Adjani, Daniel Auteuil, Virna Lisi and Vincent Perez. | |

Succession Crisis: The whole point of the novel. Charles IX had a marked preference for Henri de Bourbon, over his brothers of Anjou and Alençon. Queen Catherine works to ensure Henri de Bourbon doesn't get the crown of France. | |

Foreign Cuss Word: Mordi! It's introduced into the narrative by Coconnas, and the duchess of Nevers picks it up. There's also Sang-dioux!, used by Henri of Navarre. In at least one English translation, all the swearing is left in French. | |

Closet Shuffle | |
La Reine Margot / int_3d23c418 | comment |
Closet Shuffle: A cabinet in Margot's room is repeatedly used to shove in whatever gentleman caller must not be seen by an incoming visitor. Margot once hid her husband and her lover in the same cabinet, at the same time (although they're perfectly fine with the other's relationship with Margot). At one point during the king's interruption of a dinner between the lovers, she grabs someone's hand in the dark, thinking him to be La Môle. | |

Historical Hero Upgrade: While in real life Charlotte of Sauve was indeed one of Catherine of Medici's circle of beautiful courtly spies, she is considerably more heroic here. The real Marguerite wrote that Charlotte exerted incredible sway over Henri and alienated the King and Queen of Navarre. | |

Torture Technician | |
La Reine Margot / int_db38d6ca | comment |
Torture Technician: Maître Caboche is the chief executioner of the provostry of Paris and had some apprentices, but he does the whole work for folks of quality. | |

Kiss of Death | |
La Reine Margot / int_dc67d9ba | comment |
Kiss of Death: The even more devious plan to poison Henry via his paramour's lipstick is employed but thwarted by the would-be poisoner who couldn't murder said paramour in cold blood. | |

Gambit Pileup | |
La Reine Margot / int_de9047ac | comment |
Gambit Pileup: Henri de Navarre is the center of all plans of the French royal court: the King trying to destroy their religion, the queen mother trying to ruin his marriage, and the Duke d'Alençon trying to take his kingdom. | |

Historical Villain Upgrade | |
La Reine Margot / int_e16217f8 | comment |
Historical Villain Upgrade: Possibly Dumas was influenced too much by the propaganda against Catherine of Medici. In the book she didn't stop short of murder to help her son Henri, and even ended up accidentally murdering her own son. | |

Hunting "Accident" | |
La Reine Margot / int_ed43de19 | comment |
Hunting "Accident": Charles IX would have died in such an accident, if it wasn't for Henry of Navarre. Charles IX also voices his suspicions that his father went out this way, too. | |

One-Steve Limit | |
La Reine Margot / int_ee7a60e9 | comment |
One-Steve Limit: Henri of Navarre (the future Henri IV) is referred to as Henri, while the future Henri III is always referred to as the duke d'Alençon. There's also Henri, duke of Guise, and Henriette, duchess of Nevers. | |

Balcony Escape | |
La Reine Margot / int_f07450a0 | comment |
Balcony Escape: The way La Môle saved Henri's life, when the royal siblings meant to off him. La Môle would later flee the same way, shortly before his would-be killers stormed into Marguerite's room. | |
