Tony Bradman's retelling of Shakespeare's "Macbeth" is a historical narrative with plenty of pace and drama.

It's a very dark story, almost with a horror movie feel, as Macbeth is corrupted by ambition and power.

Boy readers in particular will be drawn to the darkness and violence of the world of Macbeth, with its swords and warriors, witches and ghosts.
