"For murder, though it have no tongue, will speak," exclaims Hamlet in Shakespeare's most enigmatic play. A fusion of classic Shakespeare with manga visuals, this is a cutting-edge adaptation that will intigue and grip its readers. Set in a war-torn cyberworld, Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, grieving for hos father's death, sees a midnight apparition stalking the castle ramparts. (...)
Neither the drawings nor the way the story is presented were of any interest to me. The adaptor's claim to have set it in a cyberworld has close to no impact, except maybe the style of how the characters dress.
May the next reader fancy the read more than I do.
