- Good ol' William
It's taken me years to read plenty of Shakespeare, and there will probably always be something to read. He is the master of the drama and comedy.

- Terrific bargain
I purchased this book for a dear friends birthday. It not only is a very attractive volume, it is a real bargain. All were very pleased
Rating:
- FABULOUS
I was impressed by the value and quality of this book.... Outstanding!!!!
A great book, it includes all the famous plays such at Romeo and Juliet, and Hamlet, and all of his others. It also includes shakespeares sonnets, which themselves are great. If Shakespeare hadn't written such good plays he'd be famous for his sonnets alone. It is a must have for the drama lover. Or the poetry lover.
William Shakespeare's works make sense out of what it is to be alive. They cover every facet of the human condition, and include some of the most beautiful poetry ever written. Nobody should ever go through life without reading these incredible plays. And this edition is an excellent choice; it's not overpriced, it's thorough and clear; and unlike many collections of Shakespeare's Complete Works, you can pick it up and read it without breaking your arm. Highly, highly recommended.

- Extra-condensed and unnaproachable
Brian Kendig's previous review says it all, but I wanted to add a caveat to a still-potential buyer: the text is so incredibly condensed that the endings of some of the longer lines are scrunched up in awkward brackets in the white space above, making for a disjointed reading of an already unapproachable edition. (Please read the previous review--it's quite helpful.)
