## Description

Will Davenant has known more tragedy than laughter. But in an unexpected twist, he inherits his grandfather’s copy of The Complete Works of Shakespeare – and makes a surprising discovery. As the last living relative of William Shakespeare himself, Will can summon the Bard’s heroes from the pages . . . and now he has some extraordinary new friends to help turn things in his life around. Superstar Maz Evans – bestselling author of the Who Let the Gods Out and Oh Maya Gods series – is BACK with a new standalone story! Packed with timeless literary heroes, Maz's trademark humour and heart, and told with empathy and poignancy. Celebrates and introduces readers to some of William Shakespeare's best-loved characters in a comic, accessible way. Over half a million copies of Maz's books sold in the UK alone!
