    After a fierce storm, a boy discovers a human skull, buried beneath the roots of an ancient tree. A skull with a legendary story…

    Vivid re-imagining of the legendary hero Robin Hood by thebestselling author of War Horse.

    “Tell the sheriff, tell Sir Guy of Gisbourne, tell everyone in Nottingham, that the Outlaws rule here in Sherwood, that we rule in the king’s name… I am Robin Hood.”

    Homeless and lost in a dark, strange forest, young Robin is rescued by a motley crew of misfits. He yearns to avenge his father and seek justice against cruel oppressors, to finally defeat the Sheriff of Nottingham, once and for all.

      Wow that book was so amazing . It leaves you speechless at the end when all the pieces of the puzzle fit together.

      MUST READ.
    • 4/5
      Michael Morpurgo is one of my favourite children's authors. I know I am always in safe hands when I pick up one of his books and "Outlaw: the story of Robin Hood" was no exception. Despite not having an animal character in it, this novel gave an interesting, entertaining introduction to the story of Robin Hood.
