Alrighty, welcome back to Wednesday Words! Every Wednesday, I'm going to use Random.org to pick a page of the book I'm reading and a line or two and post it. This week, I picked up William Shakespeare's Star Wars: Verily, A New Hope by Ian Doescher. lol Clearly, I picked it because I was intrigued.
There are 176 pages in the book, so Random has given me....105! I'm only on page 80, but luckily, I know how this story goes. It's Star Wars.
There are 24 lines on page 105, and Random has given me....line 13, which is in the middle of Han Solo talking:
--Surely, let them come!
A fight would I prefer to sneaking yon
And hither.
Kennst you whence the scene doth taketh its place? ;) (Sheesh, iambic pentameter is hard!)
This is a very interesting spin on both Shakespeare and Star Wars. I do plan to read the rest of the series. It feels shorter than the movies. lol
