After the Twelfth Night
A.G. Werff
Where to Purchase: Amazon (paperback only)
Official Blurb: Antonio was a pirate, and now he's in jail for that long ago sea fight with the Duke. His friend, Sebastian, was supposed to bail him out of jail, but Sebastian has been kidnapped! Antonio promises Sebastian's wife that he will find her missing husband, but first he must get out of jail. . . In A.G. Werff's debut novel, you will find humor, heroes with sidekicks, villains with henchmen, pirates, love, peril, adventure, and lots of treasure!
As a Retellling: Just a few days after things look like they're happily ever, Sebastian is kidnapped, and his wife and sister bail Antonio out of jail, along with a young boy named Antony, and send him off to look for his friend. Sebastian and Antonio's backstories are explored. The overall tone of the book is more adventure-driven than the original play, but there is romance to be found, and a girl masquerading as a boy.
Arista's Thoughts: I have never actually read or seen Twelfth Night, merely read a few summaries to give me a basic idea of the plot. However, I was able to follow this book's plot well enough and quite enjoyed the cast of characters and their misadventures.
