Description
Shakespeare's most famous tragedy about two young "star-cross'd lovers" whose untimely deaths ultimately unite their feuding families... retold with a bit more bite! When a classic is perfect, there is only one thing that can make it better: folding in a breed of monsters! With vampires thrown in the mix, readers will love the darkly hilarious twist on this best-loved tragedy. "For never was a story of more woe than this of Juliet and her Romeo"... Add in fangs and you can say that again!
