A New Spin on Robin Hood

• Title: Hood
• Author: Stephen R. Lawhead
• Link:
• Rating: Four Balls

When my buddy first handed me this book and told me it was a revision of the Robin Hood story I was very skeptical.  How many times can they redo this story. 

I read it begrudgingly; expecting it to suck, but I was surprised.  Lawhead is a pretty good story teller and changes some key points.  It is moved from the English country side to Wales and he actually makes it all more believable. 

All in all it is a good read that gave me a break from my normal, pretentious literary choices. 

It is the first in a trilogy, so I will check out the rest.
