I neglected to mention that there's an in-depth article interviewing me about Robin Hood and covering my view on historical pulp fiction in general at http://www.thefreechoice.info/2014/02/a-chat-with-author-i-watson-part-2-of-2.html There will be a quiz later.

"I've never stolen a whole city before" - Robin i' th' Hood

The dying days of 1191: Prince John Lackland of England, confident that his brother will never retuirn to claim his crown, makes his move for power. His soldiers take London, beieging, capturing and plundering the nation's capital. England's Chancellor, once-powerful Lord William de Longchamp, is forced to flee for Europe in disguise. His young sister, beautiful Melisende, is taken hostage, held close in the Tower of London. The rich heiress is to be tortured into forced marriage with one of Prince John's closest political cronies - Lord William de Vendenal, High Sheriff of Nottingham!

But Melisende's secret admirer, Sir Adam Fitzwarren, an old crusader's new-knighted youngest son, remains behind to attempt the impossible - rescue the damsel from the most secure fortress in England! Hunted by brutal mercenaries of the Prince's mistress, trapped in occupied London, the neophyte hero struggles to stay alive and find a way to rescue the girl he will never be allowed to marry.

The young knight's sister insists that Adam be found and aided - and Adam's sister Matilda is better known as Maid Marion, Lady of Sherwood, true love and inspiration of the outlaw rogue Robin Hood! Join Robin and his merry men as they head to London and take on Lackland, Sheriff, thief-rakers, beggar-king, and all comers, and tackle the impossible mission of reuniting young Adam and his fair Melisende - by stealing the whole of Londom from the usurper prince!
