Fun with twisting Shakespeare

This book was a mix of the good and the bad. Some of the stories were well written even if they were far fetched, while others just twisted the story. Imogen, the take off of Cymbeline, brought an entire new demension to the play, which it really needed. Still, the majority of the stories were general murder muysteries that gave the reader some satisfaction, but did not add to the original work of literature. All together it was a delightful romp through Shakespeare's plays that made me want to see them all over again. Shakespearean buffs will enjoy it.
