When I went to the site, it advertised "Delivered FREE in the UK with Super Saver Delivery," but if you're willing to pay for shipping, they should be able to send it to you wherever you are. Welcome, Klaus! I hope you enjoy the rest of the site; there's a lot here that a fan of Shakespeare can enjoy. Amazon UK won’t deliver outside the UK?

I like read his plays and always try to get time to watch movies based his plays. Both of your talks made me to take a look on the book you are talking about. I have read the PDF available on the side but I am facing problem to purchase that book online as I am not a UK based. Please provide me some alternative solutions if any one of you know. I found you people active on this topic so thought to ask you first otherwise will contact directly to Rex. Klaus Volga and Amoratado – I am a big fan of Shakespeare and his work.

Replying back to Amoratado - yes I missed many points in my previous comments because I was at start of the book but now I am finished with that so I can tell much about that. Well you said very true about the book. Book involves a secret birth in the English Royal Family hidden for hundreds of years, a shocking Royal death and kidnap in the modern day, a secret society, rivalry between the police and army, a race against time to find a missing treasure, and a love story. I loved the book and won't be able to put it down and completed that in a day. I appreciate the academic research by the author’s father for the secrets revealed in this book. Good work by the author and his father. Thanks Bill for your welcome!

It starts with one of the scenarios you paint above - Queen Elisabeth I giving birth to an illegitimate child. The relevence of that to Shakespeare is dealt with in the book. The interesting thing is that although Shakepeare's Truth is fiction it's based on years of academic research by the author's father into the Shakespeare authorship question. So I suppose it does what the best well researched conspiracy thrillers can do - make people consider something they might not have thought about. In this case - was Shakespeare who we think he was. It's also a great read by the way! Picking up on Volga’s post – I’ve also read Shakespeare’s Truth and she misses some interesting points from the book.

I am reading a book Shakespeare’s Truth by Rex Richards having lots of secret and a murder mystery. If you enjoy books by people like Dan Brown, John Grisham, Ken Follett, Bernard Cornwell, and you want a page turner with serious food for thought… I’m pretty sure you’ll enjoy reading Shakespeare’s Truth!. I have posted the amazon link for the book details. Hello all here…, I found you people interested in Shakespeare.

I came across <a href=http://blog.shakespearegeek.com/2009/10/practical-jokes-in-shakespeare.html rel="nofollow">this post</a> from the Shakespeare Geek from about four months ago. In the post, he mentions my #3, #5, and #6 above, plus a really good one from <em>All's Well</em> that I forgot about. (Dammit!) And then in the comments, I cite "my favorite" prank as one that I didn't even list above. It's also from <em>Twelfth Night</em>: "Toby incites a sword fight between Andrew and Cesario, neither of whom really want to fight. He also convinces each of them that the other is a fierce and deadly opponent." I guess I overlooked this, because the play was already the only play to make the list twice. But this prank certainly belongs with the others. (Dammit!) So I crown <em>Twelfth Night</em> the King of Shakespearean Prank Plays! Now I just need a group of kids to make a video about it...
