520 _a"At Odds with the Regent: A Story of the Cellamare Conspiracy" by Burton Egbert Stevenson is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The book is set in Paris during the early 18th century and revolves around the intrigues and political machinations surrounding the regent, Philip of Orleans. The narrative focuses primarily on the adventures of the protagonist, Jean de Brancas, a young man from Poitiers who dreams of glory and excitement in the city but quickly finds himself embroiled in a conspiracy involving powerful figures. The opening of the novel introduces Jean de Brancas as he struggles to acclimate to life in Paris, where he lacks both connections and fortune. After a frustrating week devoid of the adventure he sought, his luck changes when he encounters Cartouche, a notorious thief. A fight ensues, and he is unexpectedly rescued by the Duc de Richelieu, a figure renowned for his charm and strategic mind. This chance encounter not only saves Jean's life but also leads to a budding friendship, positioning him at the center of political intrigue as Richelieu reveals his plans regarding the regent. The stage is set for a tale of loyalty, betrayal, and ambition that intertwines personal and political motives in a tumultuous era. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
