Description

<p><span><span>Shakespeare's Witches tell Banquo, &quot;Thou Shalt 'Get Kings Though Thou Be None&quot;. Though Banquo is murdered, his son Fleance gets away. What happened to Fleance? What Kings? As Shakespeare's audience apparently knew, Banquo was the ancestor of the royal Stewart line. But the road to kingship had a most inauspicious beginning, and we follow Fleance into exile and death, bestowing the Witches' prophecy on his illegitimate son Walter. Born in Wales and raised in disgrace, Walter's efforts to understand Banquo's murder and honor his lineage take him on a long and treacherous journey through England and France before facing his destiny in Scotland.</span></span></p>

Story Behind The Book

I have been writing with purpose for as long as I can remember, since my elementary school days. Only recently did I begin writing with passion, about 12-years ago, which may or may not be "recent" in your book. Oddly, I was hit (it sure felt that way) with a deeper passion for writing, for getting my voice heard. What soon followed my literary beat-down was a revelation--that I loved nothing more than playing with words and that I'd been doing it successfully for employers, charitable organizations, friends, family and even near strangers without really thinking about it. Well...now I think.
