Chapter 28 of the "Three Musketeers" Russian audiobook is definitely *very* much abridged; the story here cuts from Athos' drunken confession (and d'Artagnan's attempt to evade any further revelations by pretending to have fallen asleep) at the end of the previous chapter directly to all four characters back in Paris and being abruptly summoned off to war, with all the would-be comic episodes of the loss of the valuable English horses being omitted altogether. Which means that the entirety of the surviving content of the chapter only lasts about three minutes; one wonders why they didn't just roll it into the start of the following chapter and adjust the numbering of the edited version...!
