Scott Richard Ehredt
This is the story of a drug deal gone bad.
Having committed the crime of selling a potent poison to a desperate youth, a destitute apothecary must decide how to spend his ill-gained fortune. Resolving to start his career afresh, he flees to the city of Verona to set up a new shop of medicinal healing and alchemical discovery.
Plans go awry when he finds himself in the middle of a woeful tragedy he had unwittingly helped to cause. Can his knowledge of nature's secrets and the inspiration of a fairy queen help restore the six lives lost? Will his exploits go undetected by a hellbent inquisitor and a noble assassin? Or was the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet only the beginning of Verona's doom?
This sick-minded sequel is both travesty and tribute to Shakespeare's classic play. New characters are introduced as old ones are reenvisioned in a madcap escapade of murder, magic, mystery, man eating, and malicious mayhem. No flesh is safe from the eerie evil hidden in the minds of men, not even the flesh of the dead....

Would you consider the audio edition of The Apothecary of Mantua: A Supernatural Sequel to Romeo and Juliet to be better than the print version?
I have not had the opportunity to read this book, but I found the audio version to portray an excellent story of the folly of man. Always fallible in all emotions and never learning from past mistakes and misdeeds.What did you like best about this story?
I have always been a lover of the macabre and all of Shakespeare's work. I have recently been rereading several of Shakespeare's plays and have listened to this brilliant tale several times. I found that Mr. Hollingsworth is a true genius. He took a classic play and blended it with a bit of all the literary genres. He expertly incorporated the supernatural, a touch of the zombie craze, crime, mystery and fantasy to create a unique story that takes all of humanities desires and faults and twists and turns them throughout the book and ends it with a bang! Plus, Scott Richard Ehredt was the perfect narrator for the audio book. His rich tone and intonation gave each character a unique voice that enriched all aspects of this story. He used a mixture of the Old English dialect and added that with great portrayals of lunatics, madmen, creatures and even pious women.Which scene was your favorite?
I loved all the interactions between the apothecary and his crocodile. They brought all the aspects and intrigue of the book to light.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I thought the portrayal of Juliet was exquisite. When she discovered the truth of her situation and addressed it in a truly unexpected manner, really showed the strength of the author's imagination. Plus all the other macabre twists made this book a delight.Any additional comments?
I was given this audio book by the author and Audiobook.Boom and was richly rewarded with a story that I still hear clearly, whereas most others just fade along side the thousands I have read. Thank you Mr. Hollingsworth. It was a true pleasure!Fantastic tale of the human condition

I have really enjoyed Hollingsworth's other works, but this one was really just pure candy to me. I would love to know where his idea came from to make the apothecarey be the impetus that brings back Romeo and Juliet.
Ehredt does a great job narrating this story, it takes one heck of a storyteller to pull off Shakespeare and zombies.
This is just brilliance from page one to the last. It is a sweet ride into the imagination ofa great storyteller, so go get a ticket and hop on before it passes you by.
