Als Teil der Marketingkampagne zu William Shakespeare’s The Clone Army Attacketh, das am 7. Juli erscheint, erscheinen auf der Quirk-Books-Website wöchentlich exklusive Sonette zu den neuen Charakteren aus Episode II. Nachdem letzte Woche Jango Fett dran – nun hat Autor Ian Doescher ein Sonett zu Count Dooku veröffentlicht.
On Count Dooku – A William Shakespeare’s Star Wars Sonnet
Come swiftly, readers: ye shall soon behold
How evil is the dark side of the Force.
Recruiting now a second Sith, so bold,
Intent upon a cunning, wicked course.
Such is the villainy of Sidious
That he would take a former Jedi Knight,
O’ercoming him with words perfidious,
Perverting him and turning him from right.
Here, then: Count Dooku, second of the Sith,
E’en now as Darth Tyranus he is nam’d.
Read on, and see how he doth plot forthwith:
Lo, for th’Republic’s fall he may be blam’d.
Ears, listen: ye shall meet this villain base,
Eyes, watch: ye shall behold his wretched face.
