Books Descriptions
Shakespeare's classic story of dark ambition, madness, and
murder springs to life in a masterful new graphic novel by
Gareth Hinds.Set against the moody backdrop of eleventh-century
Scotland, Gareth Hinds?s captivating, richly illustrated
interpretation takes readers into the claustrophobic mind of a
man driven mad by ambition. An evil seed takes root in the mind
of Macbeth, a general in the king?s army, when three witches
tell him he will one day be king. At the urging of his wife, he
resolves to take the throne by the most direct path: a dagger
in the heart of King Duncan. But "blood will have blood," and
when others grow suspicious of his sudden rise to power, is
Macbeth prepared to commit more murders to keep the crown?
