Book Read Happy Hour: February 2024 - hosted by dguthrieadams

What's past is prologue.
Shakespeare does it again, or rather we do. We love Ol' Bill. This prompt could be interpreted for that prequel you've been meaning to get to, or a book with a prologue, a story that messes about with history (or the future). Yeah, have fun with this one.
