![]() ![]() We all know the story of Robin Hood, and while I never thought about how Robin Hood came to be, I thought Cody did a great job at showing one such take on the Robin Hood story. Will In Scarlet is such a cool book! I really liked it, and it’s a great take on how Robin Hood became Robin Hood. This is the story of how a band of misfit outlaws become heroes of legend – thanks to one brave 13-year-old boy. Will flees the only home he’s ever known into neighboring Sherwood Forest, where he joins the elusive gang of bandits known as the Merry Men. Among them are Gilbert, their cruel leader a giant named John Little a drunkard named Rob and Much, an orphan girl disguised as a bandit boy. While his father, Lord Shackley, has been on the Crusades with King Richard, a treacherous plot to unseat Richard has swept across England, and Shackley House has fallen. Once the sheltered son of nobility, Will has become an exile. Goodreads Summary: Will Scarlet is on the run.
