About this listen
A completely reimagined epic of the man known as Robin Hood from multi-award-winning, best-selling author Stephen R. Lawhead - now with the complete trilogy in one volume.
For centuries, the legend of Robin Hood and his band of thieves has captivated imaginations. Now the familiar tale takes on new life as it boldly relocates to the dark forests of the Welsh countryside.
Hunted like an animal by Norman invaders, Bran ap Brychan, heir to the throne of Elfael, has abandoned his father’s kingdom and fled to the greenwood. There, in the primeval forest of the Welsh borders, danger surrounds him - for this woodland is a living, breathing entity with mysterious powers and secrets. Bran must find a way to make it his own if he is to survive and become King Raven.
From deep in the forest, Bran, Will Scarlet, and Friar Tuck form a daring plan for deliverance, knowing that failure means death for them all - and the dreams of the oppressed people of Wales.
This acclaimed trilogy (Hood, Scarlet, Tuck) 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.
Epic historical fantasy that reimagines the Robin Hood legend in medieval Wales.
Includes the complete King Raven Trilogy:
- Book One: Hood
- Book Two: Scarlet
- Book Three: Tuck
Total length: more than 300,000 words

Not Lawhead's Best
As a fan of Lawhead's books, this reader had great expectations for this series, but was left somewhat disappointed.
The narrator was not to my taste and chose his nuances oddly. For instance, he chuckled at moments of high action and violence, such as when people were being hit by arrows. I found this odd, and also found his delivery of certain moments actually diminished the potency of those moments.
The story itself is interesting enough, and as far as a retelling of the Robin Hood story it is well done and original; a tough ask for a Robin Hood retelling. However, there are great chunks of the story that are hard work to get through; information with little of interest. Perhaps the style of narration did not help this.
Overall, I still recommend this book, if you are willing to wade through some long, dull scenes in order to get to the good stuff.
I probably would have enjoyed it more if I had read it for myself rather than listened to it being narrated by this particular narrator, who wasn't terrible, and at times narrated well, but who overall was not the right choice for this book.
