Robin Hood
The Legend Begins Anew
For
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.
Steeped in Celtic
mythology and the political intrigue of medieval Britain, Stephen R.
Lawhead's latest work conjures up an ancient past and holds a mirror to
contemporary realities. Prepare yourself for an epic tale that dares to
shatter everything you thought you knew about Robin Hood.
After losing everything
he owns, forester Will Scarlet embarks on a search for none other than
King Raven, whose exploits have already become legendary. After
fulfilling his quest--and proving himself a skilled and loyal
companion--Will joins the heroic archer and his men.
Now,
however, Will is in prison for a crime he did not commit. His sentence
is death by hanging--unless he delivers King Raven and his band of
cohorts.
That, of course, he will never do.
Wales is
slowly falling under the control of the invading Normans, and King
William the Red has given his ruthless barons control of the land. In
desperation, the people turn to King Raven and his men for justice and
survival in the face of the ever-growing onslaught.
From deep in the forest they form a daring plan for deliverance, knowing that failure means death for them all.
"Scarlet
"continues Stephen R. Lawhead's riveting saga that began with the novel
"Hood, "which relocated the legend of Robin Hood to the Welsh
countryside and its dark forests. Steeped in Celtic mythology and the
political intrigue of medieval Britain, Lawhead's trilogy conjures up an
ancient past and holds a mirror to contemporary realities. Prepare for
an epic tale that dares to shatter everything you thought you knew about
Robin Hood.
"Pray God our aim is true and each arrow finds its mark."
King
Raven has brought hope to the oppressed people of Wales--and fear to
their Norman overlords. Deceived by the self-serving King William and
hunted by the treacherous Abbot Hugo and Sheriff de Glanville, Rhi Bran
is forced again to take matters into his own hands as King Raven.
Along
the way Friar Tuck has been the stalwart supporter of the man behind
the legend--bringing Rhi Bran much-needed guidance, wit, and faithful
companionship.
Aided by Tuck and his small but determined band of
forest-dwelling outlaws, Rhi Bran ignites a rebellion that spreads
through the Welsh valleys, forcing the wily monarch to marshal his army
and march against little Elfael.
This epic trilogy dares to
shatter everything you thought you knew about Robin Hood as Stephen R.
Lawhead conjures an ancient past while holding a mirror to contemporary
realities. Filled with unforgettable characters, breathtaking suspense,
and rousing battle scenes, Stephen R. Lawhead's masterful retelling of
the Robin Hood legend reaches its stunning conclusion in "Tuck."
