Bold archer. Popular defender. Heroic scoundrel. Cunning outlaw. The daughter of a nobleman, Robin of Locksley never imagines these terms will apply to her. She still can't imagine it, even after she flees her home to escape a cruel future. But when an unexpected fight results in a man's death, Robin finds herself suddenly hunted not only by her father, but by the law itself.
With only her cousin's forester clothes as a disguise and her archery skills to sustain her, Robin resigns herself to a life of exile. But she is not the only fugitive hiding in Sherwood Forest. When the other woodland outlaws begin robbing from the local poor after a cruel winter, Robin knows she has to find a way to make it stop. After all, these are her people, even if they don't know it. Even if she doesn't realize herself just what claiming them will mean.
For the people of Nottinghamshire, honor and purpose are something that belongs to nobles, not to the commoners who till their lands. But Robin teaches them a different lesson, and as wrongs are righted and lives are reclaimed, a new legend is born in the process.
But the Sheriff of Nottingham will not be usurped, and he will go to any lengths to stop the valient young outlaw harrassing his domain. As his traps close in around her and assassins seek to bring her down, Robin must risk losing love, leadership, and life if she is to save her people and fulfill her destiny as one of history's greatest heroes.
Alive with adventure and danger, sword fights and heists, hatred and love, Robin: Lady of Legend is the never-before-told tale of the girl who became Robin Hood.
"I was reading this book before bed, and I was going 'Well, I'll read just one more minute!' thirty minutes in a row. When I finally got to bed, I couldn't wait to wake up and finish it. The writing was excellent with no errors... In short, this book was AWESOME and I would highly recommend it." -- My Full Bookshelf
Praise from Amazon Readers- "Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous retell . . . this Robin gives young girls a role model that isn't dressed as the beautiful helpless princess. Honestly, I couldn't put my Kindle down."
- "Robin is my new hero! This is one of the best books I've ever read. It looked entertaining so I thought I would have a look, but once I started I couldn't stop!"
- "The Robin Hood legend gets an imaginative and lavishly detailed retelling here. Descriptive scenes evoke the very sounds and smells of Robin's beloved Sherwood, and the dialogue and rich characterization bring her and her companions to life. Add in a briskly plotted story, and a female hero to turn legend upside down, and you have a winner."
Praise from Publishers Weekly"The storytelling is solid, the research is thorough, the details are spot-on, and the skill is undeniable.... As Robin Hood retellings go, it's pretty much a bullseye."
