King Henry IV: Shadow of Succession (Dramatized) Audiobook (Unabridged)

" I'm not reading this edition. I'm reading the play from the Pelican Shakespeare. "

" a brilliant historical play in which shakespeare draws the difference between the tactful, and the rash and emplusive character "

" Not as fun or interesting as Richard II... I find the scenes with Hal and Falstaff the most entertaining and find the stuff with the actual king kinda boring.. at parts, especially near the beginning, but it's still an incredible play and I'm kinda looking forward to reading and watching Part 2. "

" Falstaff may be Shakespeare's crowning achievement (no argument from me!), but I personally love Prince Hal. His mixture of frustration at his father's disappointment in him and his desire for his father's affection and approval are themes to which most young people must relate. Hal and Hotspur, like Hamlet and Fortinbras, are a fascinating pair. "

" Oh, Literature teacher, I do adore you so for making us read this play. "

" Banish plump Jack, and banish all the world. "

" I'm still not sure why Falstaff is one of the greatest characters in Shakespeare's writing, but it was an interesting read nonetheless. I'd like to read the second part, and Henry V, before I form a complete opinion. "

" First read this book at school. It was one of the works we read for A level English. Read it several times since and think it's an intriguing exploration of how a young boy begins to face up to the notions of duty and life. "

" My all time favorite Shakespeare play. Falstaff is the Bard's more entertaining character. "

" **Read as part of the complete works package by Latus ePublishing (ASIN B005LSCQ4Y)** Formatting good, few typos. Still hate Falstaff. "

" Get these on audio if you can. Shakespeare wrote to be heard. "

" Perhaps my favorite of the Henry plays, Hal, I really like you! "

" Had to read this for a Shakespeare class. Not my favorite. "

" Not the most exciting of Shakespeare's historical plays; Falstaff and Hal are interesting enough, but otherwise it only seems to serve as a set up for HV "

" this was my first history play by shakespeare. it wasn't as good was watching the tudors, but i still enjoyed it. "

" One of his most underrated. All of his histories are really good and don't get much love. "

" Weird mix of propaganda for prince henry and life lessons from falstaff. Lukewarm read for me. "

" one of my favorites. Something about Falstaff that I just really find attractive...who's to say. "

" So begins my love of Falstaff. A favorite Shakespeare read. "

" Certainly on my top 5 Shakespeare list, it contains one of my favorite lines of all-time. Hal, upon seeing Falstaff dead at Shrewsbury, says, "What, old acquaintance! could not all this flesh / Keep in a little life? Poor Jack, farewell! / I could have better spared a better man." "
