Dumas, however, later wrote four more novels that cover this family and portray similar characters, starting with François or [[Francis I of France|Francis I]], his son [[Henry II of France|Henry II]], and Marguerite and [[Francis II of France|François II]], children of Henry II and [[Catherine de' Medici]].
