Hood: The King Raven Trilogy - Book 1

by Stephen R. Lawhead

Thomas Nelson | June 5, 2007 | Trade Paperback

Robin HoodThe Legend Begins AnewFor centuries, the legend of Robin Hood and his band of thieves has captivated the imagination. Now the familiar tale takes on new life, fresh meaning, and an unexpected setting.Hunted like an animal by Norman invaders, Bran ap Brychan, heir to the throne Elfael, has abandoned his fathers kingdom and fled to the greenwood. There, in the primeval forest of the Welsh borders, danger surrounds him--for this woodland is a living, breathing entity with mysterious powers and secrets, and Bran must find a way to make it his own if he is to survive.Like the forest itself, Hood is deep, dark, and at times savagely brutal--yet full of enchantment and hope. Internationally-acclaimed author Stephen R. Lawhead has created a lyrical rendering of a time-honored story that will lead you down strange pathways into another time and place.

"A Great Story"

Beverley J

This is a wonderful re-telling of the tale of Robin Hood. Lawhead has chosen to re-create the story in a new and different way, using ideas from the old legends and songs written about Robin Hood. The book is well-written, drawing you into the story and the lives of the characters. I like the detail with which Lawhead writes, from the development of characters to descriptions of the land in which they live to the feelings of the people as they are losing their freedom. It was a very enjoyable and worthwhile read.
