5 posts | 2 read | 15 to read
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Ava Reid comes a reimagining of Lady Macbeth, Shakespeares most famous villainess, giving her a voice, a past, and a power that transforms the story men have written for her. Lady Macbeth doesnt retell Shakespeare so much as slice cleanly through it, revealing what was hidden beneath. I couldn't look away.Alix E. Harrow, New York Times bestselling author of Starling House The Lady knows the stories: how her eyes induce madness in men. The Lady knows she will be wed to the Scottish brute, who does not leave his warrior ways behind when he comes to the marriage bed. The Lady knows his hostile, suspicious court will be a game of strategy, requiring all of her wiles and hidden witchcraft to survive. But the Lady does not know her husband has occult secrets of his own. She does not know that prophecy girds him like armor. She does not know that her magic is greater and more dangerous, and that it will threaten the order of the world. She does not know this yet. But she will.

The Scottish Play is my favourite Shakespeare play, so I am intrigued by a retelling about Lady Macbeth. Ava Reid has done her research & has based the story & language in 11th Century Scotland. Is Lady Macbeth the villain men have painted her to be?

Thanks #netgalley for this thoroughly entertaining historical fantasy loosely based on Macbeth. I really enjoyed the story, the characters, and the changes to the original.
