Publisher's Synopsis
This is an easy-to-read retelling of William Shakespeare's ""Macbeth."" CHAPTER 1: The Temptation of Macbeth - 1.1 - In a deserted place above which thunder sounded and lightning flashed, Three Witches were ending their meeting. Nearby, a battle raged, and soldiers and horses screamed and died. "When shall we three meet again? Shall we meet in thunder and lightning, or in rain?" asked the First Witch. "We shall meet again after the battle is over. The battle shall have its conquerors, and it shall have its conquered," answered the Second Witch. "The battle will end before the Sun sets," said the Third Witch. "In which place shall we meet?" asked the First Witch. "We shall meet upon the heath," answered the Second Witch. "There we shall meet Macbeth," said the Third Witch. With the Witches were their familiars. Graymalkin was a malevolent spirit in the form of a gray cat, and Paddock was a malevolent spirit in the form of a toad. The familiars were growing restless.
