The Tempest

If you want magic, mayhem, and adventure-not to mention romance and revenge-you've opened the right book. THE TEMPEST has it all: a plotting sorcerer, a murderous man-monster, cunning traitors, spirits, lovers, all shipwrecked on an enchanted (and sometimes dangerous!) desert island. There's lots of double meaning if you're willing to look for it, underneath a funny, exciting story about a terrible storm and a man with a master plan: stuff about isolation, control, dreams, vengeance, and redemption. There are also some of Shakespeare's most famous lines and many of his most memorable characters.
