This book tried be like a play, including having each chapter be a scene. There were many references to Shakespeare's plays in the text though I'm sure I missed a lot of them. Ultimately it didn't work for me because the chosen style resulted in lots of running around and talking a lot more in the manner of Shakespeare's plays than Shakespeare himself and his contemporaries probably did. While fairies may reasonably speak that way, Shakespeare as a young man probably didn't. The story had some interesting components but the plot moved slowly.
