Book Reviews of Shakespeare's Scribe (Shakespeare Stealer)

Book Review: Fascinating!
Summary: 5 Stars

Fascinating!

The Shakespeare's Scribe, by Gary Blackwood, is a very detailed sequel

to the great Shakespeare's Spy novel. In this adventure, Widge is forced to move

around like a gypsy with Chamberlain's men to make money, for a deadly plague

forces them to leave London. While moving, Widge meets a mysterious man that

may (or may not) know the secrets behind Widge's past. With sword fights,

robberies, and even death, poor Widge is confused. Should he trust this

mysterious man, or follow the company he loves? This is definitely one of my

most favorite books that I have read. I recommend this book for kids ages 11+,

for some of the material in this book might be complicated, especially in the

beginning. This is definitely a must-read.

Summary of Shakespeare's Scribe (Shakespeare Stealer)

When an outbreak of the deadly Black Plague closes the Globe Theatre, William Shakespeare's acting troupe sets off on a tour of England. Widge, the orphan-turned-actor, knows that he'll be useful on the trip. Not only does he love the stage, but his knack for a unique shorthand has proven him one of the most valuable apprentices in the troupe. But then a mysterious man appears, claiming to know a secret from Widge's past-a secret that may forever force him from the theatre he loves.

"An exciting, well-written tale that is sure to leave [readers] clamoring for more." (School Library Journal, starred review)
