Description
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Ava Reid comes a reimagining of Lady Macbeth, Shakespeare’s most famous villainess, giving her a voice, a past, and a power that transforms the story men have written for her.
“Lady Macbeth doesn’t 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.
Ce que les critiques en disent
“A stunning, spellbinding, and exquisite tale that kept me riveted throughout the pages . . . Gorgeously written, haunting, and dark, Lady Macbeth is an unforgettable retelling will set your imagination alight.”—Sue Lynn Tan, USA Today bestselling author of Daughter of the Moon Goddess.
“Lady Macbeth is a dark, elegant, heart-stirring novel, beautifully written, rich with the history of language and of medieval Scotland. This tale of a tortured, appealing, resourceful woman carves its own life from the Scottish play in a unique and powerful way. I loved every page.”—Louisa Morgan, author of The Ghosts of Beatrice Bird
“Hail, Queen! Ava Reid has done it again in this gothic, atmospheric reclamation of the story of Lady Macbeth. Scotland’s cold will seep into your bones, but the kernel of hope that burns in all of Reid’s stories will keep you warm . . .”—Vaishnavi Patel, New York Times bestselling author of Kaikeyi
