Power. History. Love. Hate. Vengeance. She will be Queen. Whatever it takes... Daughter of an ousted king. Descendant of powerful druids. Destined to take her place in history. As a child, Gruoch's grandmother prophesies that she will one day be Queen of Alba and reclaim the lands of her Pictish kin. When, many years later, she is betrothed to Duncan, the heir-elect, the prophecy appears to come true. Determined to never to be as powerless as her parents, Gruoch leaves behind her home, her family and her friend MacBethad, and travels to the royal seat at Scone to seal her fate. But when a deadly turn of events forces Gruoch to flee Duncan and the capital, Gruoch finds herself at the mercy of an old enemy. Her hope of becoming Queen all but lost, Gruoch does what she must to survive, until she is given a choice: live a long, peaceful life but fall into obscurity, or seize her chance for vengeance and a path back to the throne. An unputdownable, sweeping historical epic, Lady MacBethad reimagines the life of Gruoch – the real life Scottish Queen who inspired one of Shakespeare's most famous characters. Reader Reviews: 'I adored this book' 'One of the most interesting, complex and captivating protagonists I've ever come across' 'I could not put this book down' 'So good that I'm almost sad I've finished it'

Como hija de un rey destronado y descendiente de druidas ancestrales, Gruoch está llamada a ocupar su lugar en la historia. Cuando era una niña, su abuela vaticinó que algún día sería reina de Escocia. Y años después, cuando se compromete con Duncan, heredero al trono, la profecía parece estar a un paso de convertirse en realidad. Así, abandona su hogar, a su familia y a su buen amigo MacBethad para viajar al trono de Scone y sellar su nuevo destino. Sin embargo, nada ocurre como Gruoch espera. La corte de Duncan está llena de palabras taimadas y rostros hostiles, de mujeres desesperadas por usurpar supuesto y personas cuyas intenciones son todo un misterio. A medida que se acerca su coronación, un cruel giro del destino obliga a Gruoch a huir de Duncan y a abandonarla capital; ahora está sola y a merced de un viejo enemigo. Tras haber perdido casi por completo la esperanza de convertirse en reina, hará todo lo posible por sobrevivir, mientras lucha por cumplir el destino que le ha sido vaticinado. «Isabelle Schuler consigue lo impensable en Lady MacBethad: transformar a la reina malvada de Shakespeare en una heroína con la que se puede empatizar». LAURA SHEPPERSON

Dceři vyhoštěného krále Gruoch bylo v dětství předpovězeno, že se stane královnou Alby. Její zaslíbení Duncanovi, dědici trůnu, toto proroctví zdánlivě potvrzuje. Opouští svůj domov, rodinu a blízkého přítele MacBethada, aby odcestovala na královský dvůr Scone a přijala své nové postavení. Nic však není tak, jak Gruoch očekává. Duncanův dvůr je plný intrik a nepřátelských tváří, žen, které se touží dostat na její místo, a dalších, jejichž záměry jsou zahaleny tajemstvím. S blížící se korunovací přichází smrtící zvrat, který přinutí Gruoch opustit Duncana i hlavní město. Ocitá se sama v rukou dávného nepřítele. Její naděje na to, že se stane královnou, se zdají být ztraceny a Gruoch dělá vše pro své přežití. Zapřisáhne se však, že naplní proroctví a vybojuje osud, který jí byl předurčen. Ať už to stojí cokoliv. Isabelle Schuler přináší oslnivé převyprávění ságy o síle a intrikách, zasazenou do současnosti. Já, lady MacBethad odkrývá ženskou sílu a touhu po moci hlavní postavy, jež neohroženě prochází labyrintem vlastních ambicí. V tomto románu se klasické mytologické příběhy setkávají s moderní ženskou perspektivou, připomínající Kirke či Achilleovu píseň autorky Madeline Miller. Připravte se na okouzlující cestu, která změní váš pohled na pověsti dávno minulé. Vychází v překladu Alžběty Komrskové.

“A bruising tale of passion, ambition, power, vengeance, and desire . . . a stunning retelling.” —Entertainment Weekly, Most Anticipated Books of Fall “Suspenseful, atmospheric and full of twists and turns, I loved the brutal, backstabbing world that Isabelle Schuler conjures up where only the most ruthless can survive. A thoroughly enjoyable read!”—Jennifer Saint, bestselling author of Ariadne and Elektra An instant international bestseller: a suspenseful, sweeping historical epic for readers of Natalie Haynes and Madeline Miller, which boldly reimagines the origin story of the woman who inspired one of Shakespeare’s most iconic characters, Lady Macbeth. She will be Queen. Whatever it takes . . . Daughter of an ousted king, descendant of ancient druids, Gruoch (GREW-ock), has grown up believing that she will be crowned queen of Alba and reclaim the lands of her Pictish kin, a prophecy seemingly fulfilled by her betrothal to Duncan, the heir-elect. Determined never to be powerless again, she leaves behind her home, her family, and her close friend MacBethad, and travels to the royal seat at Scone to embrace her new position. But Duncan’s court is rife with sly words and unfriendly faces, women desperate to usurp her position, and others whose motives are shrouded in mystery. As her coronation approaches, a deadly turn of events forces Gruoch to flee Duncan and the capital. Alone and at the mercy of an old enemy, her hope of becoming Queen all but lost, Gruoch must make a fateful choice: live a long, quiet life in the shadows, or seize vengeance and a path back to the throne. A stunning literary reclamation of an iconic character, Queen Hereafter is a gripping story of female ambition, power, history, desire, hate, and vengeance set against the backdrop of early medieval Scotland.

From towering crags to misted moors and formidable fortresses, Lady Macbeth transports readers to the heart of eleventh-century Scotland, painting a bold, vivid portrait of a woman much maligned by history. Lady Gruadh—Rue—is the last female descendant of Scotland’s most royal line. Married to a powerful northern lord, she is widowed while still carrying his child and forced to marry her husband’s murderer: a rising warlord named Macbeth. As she encounters danger from Vikings, Saxons, and treacherous Scottish lords, Rue begins to respect the man she once despised. When she learns that Macbeth’s complex ambitions extend beyond the borders of the vast northern region, she realizes that only Macbeth can unite Scotland. But his wife’s royal blood is the key to his ultimate success. Determined to protect her son and a proud legacy of warrior kings and strong women, Rue invokes the ancient wisdom and secret practices of her female ancestors as she strives to hold her own in a warrior society. Finally, side by side as the last Celtic king and queen of Scotland, she and Macbeth must face the gathering storm brought on by their combined destiny. This is Lady Macbeth as you’ve never seen her.
