As the gates of Ravenskeep swing open and a young woman flees into the primeval depths of Sherwood Forest and into the arms of the man she loves, a saga of exceptional power and remarkable passion begins...

He is Sir Robery Locksley - the heroic nobleman who has turned his back on all he knows to embark on a dangerous quest for justice in an England torn apart by treachery, betrayal, and war.

She is Lady Marian of Ravenskeep - the proud, defiant knight's daughter who leaves her sheltered life behind to join a shadowy band of outlaws who follow no law but their own.

Robin Hood and Maid Marian - their love has belonged to legend for centuries, and now it belongs to us all, stunningly brought to life by the masterful pen of a truly gifted storyteller. Against a medieval tapestry of color and pageantry, Jennifer Roberson has woven a rich, sweeping tale of a woman whose courage and passion could forever alter the destiny of that mist-shrouded land of lore we know in our hearts and see in our dreams.

Robin Hood fans will recognize some concepts and characterizations borrowed from other adaptations like Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves and the TV series Robin of Sherwood, but it is still a pleasant and fun retelling of the story if not wholly original. Romping through the greenwood was a welcome break from a long and cold spring!

A familiar retelling, but good lighthearted fun

Very well written and read version of the old folktale, but with much deeper examination of the characters, their motivations, personalities and history both of the families involved and the politics of the time. If he or they did in fact have any historical basis (really exist), we now know why without losing the enjoyment of a great 'yarn'.

Robin Hood Story, but so much more

A wonderful retelling of the classic Robin Hood- it’s political intrigue, society at the time and love and decency. Great narration as well.

30 years later it’s still as good

I read the reviews and thought I would give it a try. I had read one review that said you need to give it a chance since the beginning was tedious or slow. I remembered that when I found that to be true and forged ahead....it seemed as soon as I got to that certain point...the story became amazing! What an author! What a story! Havent finished it yet....one more chapter to go...but already have Book 2 in my library! The reader while not terrible was not the best either...I found the accents unauthentic and somewhat confusing...but...the story made up for it!

Almost returned it!
