Description

'I charge you, Sir Alan Dale, with administering my death. At the end of the game, I would rather die by your hand than any other'

England rebels

War rages across the land. In the wake of Magna Carta, King John's treachery is revealed and the barons have risen against him once more. Fighting with them is the Earl of Locksley - the former outlaw Robin Hood - and his right-hand man Sir Alan Dale.

France invades

When the French enter the fray, with the cruel White Count leading the charge, Robin and Alan must decide where their loyalties lie: with those who would destroy the king and seize his realm or with the beloved land of their birth.

A hero who will live for ever

Fate is inexorable and Death waits for us all. Or does it Can Robin Hood pull off his greatest ever trick and cheat the Grim Reaper one last time just as England needs him most

Reviews

A gloriously entertaining reboot . . . Donald's Robin is a fascinating figure - enigmatic, unpredictable, charismatic and more Benedict Cumberbatch than Errol Flynn. Huge fun - The Times

Angus Donald delivers rip-roaring novels that fling you headlong into the dark undercurrents of the medieval world, written in a taut and compelling style and seething with skulduggery. A master of adventure - Robyn Young

Joyous writing, full of verve and control - Conn Iggulden

Far from the figure of popular legend, Donald's Robin Hood is a brutal, cunning warlord who will let nothing stand in his way. A fresh, lively and welcome take on one of the world's most famous outlaws...a boy's own romp that flies like an arrow from a yew bow - Giles Kristian
