Richard III by William Shakespeare

dark fast-paced

5.0

wow 10/10 this one was dRaMa

richard is the younger brother of King Edward IV. king edward is ill and dies and richard murders their younger brother and then also edward’s two sons (the lost princes) and then he also murders pretty much everyone in the court that opposes him. he is eventually given the throne after lots of murder and manipulation and then he forces a widow to marry him but gets bored and kills her so he can marry his niece (the lost prince’s sister). It ends with a battle where Richard is finally slain by Richmond who inherits the throne as King Henry VII.
