Publisher Description
I lay very still, with all my senses telling me that I had gone mad. The plague? Nobody's had the plague for centuries . . .
Nathan Field, a talented young actor, arrives at the newly rebuilt Globe Theatre in London to play Puck in A Midsummer Night's Dream. As rehearsals begin, eerie echoes of the past begin to haunt Nat, and he falls sick with a mysterious sickness.
When he wakes, Nat finds himself in 1599, an actor at the original Globe - and his co-star is none other than the King of Shadows himself: William Shakespeare.
Nat's new life is full of excitement, danger and the passionate friendship that he has longed for since the tragic death of his parents. But why has he been sent to the past - and is he trapped there forever?

I am boredish
I was very unfortunate to receive an essay question concerning King of Shadows. I had never heard about it before and was fascinated until page 3 when it became very boring. The essay turned into a bigger task then I presumed in the first place. The book is boring and when you expect something big to happen it just doesn't. Sorry Susan Cooper!
Boring ( for me)
Look, i liked this book till like the second chapter but then it started getting too much with everything happening and its really annoying when i have to write a summary about the chapter i had just read, and i get too confused and don't know what to write about, i guess if i had a longer attention span i would b fascinated with the book, but i just get bored, also i think u would have to be into all that acting stuff and William shakespeare and the history of London, but I'm not so... Sorry Susan!
