    Buch (Taschenbuch)

    Macbeth was exactly as I expected it to be, a fast read filled with intrigues, murder and suspense.

    The way Lady Macbeth and Macbeth himself turn into these greedy people, because they get a glimpse of the power they could have and instantly do everything to become the most powerful, was fascinating. The storyline was really good and you kept waiting for Macbeth's downfall. I especially enjoyed reading this tragedy in the STAGED limited edition, because the pages are designed with a lot of space for notes and the design in general is just amazing!
