Publisher's Summary

Ever wonder what Will Shakespeares life was like before he was known as the Bard? Before the queen took notice of him? Before the Globe Theatre? Step back in time and into the Arden Woods about Avon. Find out what transformed the life of a petty schoolmaster into a writer of enduring vision.

In an instant this young son of a glover had his life ripped from him by the king of those that live under the hill, the King of Elves. Can this mortal overturn the will and power of the ruler of an immortal realm? He must, or face the loss of his love and his life.

Critic Reviews

"It takes a lot of guts to write a novel about William Shakespeare, and Sarah A. Hoyt has what it takes. The deed inherently invites comparison, and of course Ill Met by Moonlight falls short of the work of the greatest writer in the English language. However, the prose is solid; the story lines are involving, tough-minded, and sexually charged; the characters are interesting and sympathetic; and echoes of Shakespeare's work ring through the novel. If you like good fantastic fiction, you will enjoy Hoyt's debut novel." (Amazon.com review)
"The Pre-Raphaelite blonde on the jacket scarcely fits the image of the Dark Lady, but she does serve to signal that this is a quality item with crossover appeal to Shakespeare fans." (Publishers Weekly)
