Outlaws in an Outlaw City... Little John is lost, a slave somewhere in the mean streets of London. Robin Hood and His Merry Men, Women, and Children have vowed to free him or die. As the city simmers with heat and hatred, the fighters of Sherwood Forest battle alchemists, assassins, and aldermen in tournaments, pitfights, palace balls, fetid prisons, and cathedral steeples. Worse, Robin Hood finds his band melting away as the outlaws adapt to the new city ways. Beaten, betrayed, and bedeviled, the hero fears he'll have no followers left by summer's end. Then plague wracks the city and pogroms wreak havoc. The legendary outlaws rally to bring justice to the streets - while the city burns to the brazen tolls of the Bells of London... The long-awaited sequel to Robin Hood and The Beasts of Sherwood is here!
