A Must have for HS students December 1, 2008
What is there to say?? If your a person living in the 21st century you probably have no idea the terms used in Shakespeare's time, so its basically hopeless reading the play without a guide such as this one. I only started to actually understand, and therefore appreciate Shakespeare's stories when I had the no fear shakespeare books to give me a translation.
Once I see the "English" version, I actually prefer Shakespeare's wording! So poetic.
Not a Review of Hamlet, but of "No Fear Shakespeare" February 19, 2008

It would serve no useful purpose to write a review of Hamlet. It has already taken its rightful place among mankind's greatest works. The subject here is not Hamlet, but the manner in which it is presented:
Numbered, original text on the left hand page, modern, up-to-date language on the right hand page.
As with all of Spark Notes editors, an excellent way to present the play, for the first time junior high reader or for the 62-year old reader taking a Shakespeare course and reading Hamlet just for fun.
And as for Hamlet, the play? Like fine wine it gets better, much better, with age.
My lifesaver February 13, 2008

This is my second No Fear Shakespeahere book (last year had Macbeth) and I have come to love Shakespheare plays now that I actually know what each character is saying and what exactly is going on. The lines are clean and clear just like reading a modern play. I acutally find myself laughing at lines which is always a good sign meaning that I understand what's going on. Also I don't feel like I'm cheating like when people just read footnotes and summaries. I'm in college now and I've only read two shakespheare both using No Fear Shakespheare! Great product that I without a doubt will use in the future if needed!

This book is definitely God's gift to all college students. Truly easy to understand, I read the entire book in 1 day. Thanks to "No Fear" I got an "A" in my English class.

This is truly a No Fear way to understand Shakespeare. There is a modern day interpretation writing on one side of the book and the Shakespeare way on the other. It was a lifesaver!
