This is a fantastic retelling of the Macbeth story from the perspective of the three fates who told Macbeth his prophecy. The fates are flawed, their motivations questionable, and their pasts tragic. Tying in the Scottish mythology with a story that relies so much on it is brilliant, it's nice to see this bit of Scottish mythology and history mixed together. More people should read this. Anyone with a love of mythology, a love of the occult, would get a great deal from this.
