The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood

Howard Pyle

Favourite Quote: “So passed the seasons then, so they pass now, and so they will pass in time to come, while we come and go like leaves of the tree that fall and are soon forgotten”

Review: Were I to retitle this novel I would change it to “The Many Adventures of Robin Hood”. When first reading this novel, I enjoyed reading how Robin came to encounter the characters we all know such as Little John and the Sheriff of Nottingham. However, what soon becomes apparent is the repetitive nature of all these stories. In fact, it felt each chapter was near identical with a different foe who Robin and aptly named merry men will overcome and likely offer to join his troupe. Prepare to read the seemingly most dangerous battle ever fought – only on repeat!
