      About This Book

      "TURN, HELL-HOUND, TURN!"

      The fight. Leap, clash, sweep; hoarse, snarling voices. Macbeth is beaten backward, Macduff raises his claymore, and they plunge out of sight. A scream. A thud. Silence.

      Seyton carries his claidheamh-mor and on it, streaming blood, the head of Macbeth. Real blood drips onto his upturned face.

      And being well-trained professional actors, they respond, with stricken faces and shaking lips, "Hail, King of Scotland!"

      The curtain falls .. .
