    Hamlet, Prince of Denmark: A Novel
    Written specifically for audio and produced by Audible Studios, Hamlet, Prince of Denmark: A Novel is the second re-imagining of a Shakespeare classic from authors A. J. Hartley and David Hewson (who previously teamed up for Macbeth: A Novel). Richard Armitage (of The Hobbit films) delivers a spellbinding performance, drawing on his experience with the Royal Shakespeare Company to bring this suspenseful, tragic tale to life. The result is a one-of-a-kind audio experience that reinvigorates a timeless classic for fans of the story while allowing others to discover it in a whole new way. And we’re not the only ones singing Hamlet's praises – just take a look at the countless five-star reviews from listeners.

    It is a tale of ghosts, of madness, of revenge - of old alliances giving way to new intrigues. Denmark is changing, shaking off its medieval past. War with Norway is on the horizon. And Hamlet - son of the old king, nephew of the new - becomes increasingly entangled in a web of deception - and murder. Beautifully performed by actor Richard Armitage ("Thorin Oakenshield" in the Hobbit films), Hamlet, Prince of Denmark takes Shakespeare’s original into unexpected realms, reinventing a story we thought we knew.
