Complete your collection of the William Shakespeare Star Wars series! Come once more unto the breach, dear friends, as the greatest playwright of the English language and the greatest space opera ever filmed make for a perfect match. A sea of troubles threatens the valiant Resistance, pursued by the sound and fury of the vile First Order. Can Rey, Poe, Finn, Rose, BB-8 and their allies overcome such toil and trouble? Shall Kylo Ren be proven fortune's fool, or master of his fate? What will become of the House of Skywalker? And how will the Bard of Avon lower the curtain on this epic saga? That is the question!
