Macbeth

Conrad Mason grew up in Oxford, and studied Classics at Cambridge. After graduating he became an editor at Usborne, and now he edits children's fiction for Working Partners. His Tales of Fayt children's series and award-winning middle grade novel, The Girl in Wooden Armour, are all published by David Fickling Books. He likes to read, run, and play the mandolin. Conrad now lives in the Chilterns with his wife and children.

Macbeth is just one of an outstanding series of condensed versions of Shakespeare's plays from Usborne. With their exciting and atmospheric illustrations, accessible and thought-provoking storytelling and internet links to associated websites, there could be no better way to awaken an early and hopefully lifelong enthusiasm for the bard.
