Macbeth

Please note: This audiobook has been created using AI voice.

King DuncanÕs closest generals, Macbeth and Banquo, have just defeated two invading armies and the Irish rebel Macdonwald. Out across the misty moor, they encounter three witches who reveal to Macbeth a powerful prophecy: ÒAll hail, Macbeth! hail to thee, thane of Glamis! All hail, Macbeth, hail to thee, thane of Cawdor! All hail, Macbeth, thou shalt be king hereafter!Ó They not only claim that Macbeth will eventually become King of Scotland, but that Banquo will father a line of Scottish kingsÑthough ominously, Banquo will never be king himself.

This shocking tragedyÑa violent caution to those seeking power for its own sakeÑis, to this day, one of ShakespeareÕs most popular and influential masterpieces.
