4.0 out of 5 stars
A Nice Read,
By Peekablue (Missouri, U.S.A.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Maid Marian (Hardcover)
This version of Robin Hood goes along pretty well with most of the traditional Robin Hood stories. One difference is that Robin, the Earl of Locksley and Huntington, actually squandered away his fortune and poached the King's deer for love of the hunt rather than out of necessity. His lands were then confiscated by King Henry and he was named outlaw for resisting arrest.
For those who like strong women characters, this Maid Marian (who's real name is Matilda) can use a sword, quarter-staff, and shoot a bow as well as Robin. She also loves to hunt and likes being out in Nature. The only complaint I have is that some of the characters, Friar Tuck for instance, tend to be rather long winded. Other than that I enjoyed the book and recommend it to anyone interested in Robin Hood. |
