Synopsis

The eternally engaging story of Robin Hood has been re-imagined here with very real, appealing characters moving through a fast-paced tale of drama and intrigue set in 12th-century England. Young Robin is a sub-apprentice forester, alone in the world but for his friends, Marian and Much. Getting a rare day off to enjoy the treats of the Nottingham fair, Robin finds en route that he has become a criminal fugitive. Taking to the forest to escape his pursuers, Robin is joined by a rooster of familiar characters. THE OUTLAWS OF SHERWOOD is a vivid recreation of the adventure, romance, and action of this timeless tale. Robin McKinley is the recipient of the Newbery Medal for THE HERO AND THE CROWN.
