About this ebook

"Rich prose, intense action, historical and mythological depth, and captivating innovations." -Kirkus Reviews


Exiled for an unjust crime and forced to use whatever means necessary to survive, a figure of hope emerges from Sherwood Forest. But what most people know about Robin Hood (the enemy of Prince John and nobleman loyal to King Richard) was an invention of a playwright nearly three hundred years after Robin Hood died. However, there are older stories about the real Robin Hood.


USA Today bestselling author Kate Danley weaves the original 13th century ballads, Robin Hood traditions passed down through ancient pagan rites, and historical evidence together into a noblebright epic. Enter a world of adventure and chivalry as you discover the man behind the myth, as you meet the Olde Robin Hood.
