Just Macbeth! is the seventh book in the Just! series. In 2005 the Bell Shakespeare Company commissioned Andy to write a play that would help introduce young audiences to the works of William Shakespeare and the pleasures of live theatre. Along with co-writer, Jill Griffiths, he came up with Just Macbeth!, which blends the characters from the Just! series with the story and characters from Macbeth. The book Just Macbeth! is a slightly revised version of the play.
