Klappentext
"We are such stuff as dreams are made on..." The year is 1613, and England's foremost playwright is committed to finishing his latest magnum opus, Love's Labour's Won, for his new patron, the Earl of Gloucester. However, after falling asleep while working late at the Globe, he wakes to find himself in a subtly altered world that is both familiar and yet strangely unfamiliar. What follows is an epic quest through Shakespeare's plays in which the Bard of Stratford is confronted by sinister eldritch forces in service of the Great Old Ones - malign beings of unimaginable power - the greatest of which is the cosmic entity known as Cthulhu. ______________________________________Shakespeare Vs. Cthulhu: What Dreams May Come is an interactive fantasy novel, inspired by the Bard's most popular plays and the unsettling creations of the American pulp horror writer H. P. Lovecraft. In this adventure gamebook, YOU take on the role of William Shakespeare himself, deciding which route to take, which perils to risk, and which of the villains and eldritch horrors you will meet along the way to fight. But whether you survive your ordeal or succumb to riotous madness, will be down to the choices YOU make.***"By the pricking of my thumbs,*** something wicked this way comes." ______________________________________"What a piece of work! A loving, witty tribute to the Bard that somehow melds perfectly with Lovecraftian horror. Spotting the thousand and one Shakespeare references alone is enormous fun, and braving Will's perilous adventure even more so. If gamebooks be the food of love, play on."Antony Johnston, author of Can You Solve the Murder?
