I'm a big Shakespeare fan, especially his tragedies, this in particular is my favorite is a perfect mix between plot and characters, the corruption in humans heart are theme of this book, the crimes that are committed in the play are all driven by greed and the anger for power, a wicked desire to be powerfull that takes over the heart of Macbeth and betrays, not only his king, but his friend, and in the rush to cover his betrayal he ends up putting his kingdom in danger.
