Robin Hood: New and old takes on the story of Robin Hood ...

Ever since the Sheriff of Nottingham killed his father, Rook has run wild in Sherwood Forest, dreaming of his day for vengeance. Finally, he has found his chance. Not with the sheriff himself, but with the evil man’s son, snared by one of the mantraps his own father planted to catch outlaws such as Rook. Filled with clashes of sword and emotion, this page-turning instalment in Nancy Springer’s Tales of Rowan Hood series will leave readers eager to return to Sherwood, where outlaws are often innocent, and survival is no game.

Her father is determined to make her pay. It was just over a year ago that Princess Ettarde – her hand promised in marriage by her father to the power-hungry Lord Basil – escaped to the shroud of Sherwood Forest. There, Ettarde joined up with Rowan Hood’s band of misfit teens, an outlaw-in-the-making and a princess no more. But now her father is determined to recapture her. He will do anything, even use his own wife – Ettarde’s mother-as bait. In a cage. In the middle of Sherwood Forest. Ettarde will not stand for it, and neither will Rowan Hood. Nancy Springer delivers a stirring battle of wit and courage in this, the third in her Tales of Rowan Hood.
