Enter Three Witches


This "historical fiction" by Caroline B Cooney is a fictional account of Lady Mary of Shiel, ward to Lord and Lady Macbeth. The book is based on Shakespeare's play of the Dread King of Scotland and is a lot of fun. Cooney presents the accounts of Shakespeare's tragedy through a young lady's eyes, adding personal feeling and joy to the tale. I strongly recommend to any lovers of Shakespeare, history, or the Middle Ages.
