Robin: Lady of Legend is the thrilling saga of Robin of Locksley, a daring young woman who transforms cruel fate into a heroic campaign — one that will captivate the land, enrage the authorities, and ignite the fires of her legend. Forced to flee her home in the dead of night, Robin of Locksley’s only hope is to be left alone. Abandoning her noble upbringing, she resigns herself to a life of exile in Sherwood Forest. But she is not the only fugitive hiding in its shades. When the other outlaws begin robbing the local poor after a cruel winter, Robin knows she must find a way to stop them. After all, these are her people, even if they don't know it. Even if she doesn't realize herself just what claiming them will mean. For the people of Nottinghamshire, honor and purpose are something that belongs to nobles, not to commoners like themselves. But Robin teaches them a different lesson, and as wrongs are righted and lives are reclaimed, they find hope in the birth of a new legend. Robin never wanted to be a leader. She never thought to be a hero. But to save her people, she must become both. Even if it means the Sheriff will stop at nothing to destroy her. And even if it means losing the man she loves in the process. With a sharp mind, brave heart, and an unbroken spirit, Robin confounds her enemies and inspires her followers. But a single misstep can spell doom for them all. As traps close in around her and assassins seek to bring her down, she must risk losing love, leadership, and life if she is to save her people and fulfill her destiny as one of history's greatest heroes. Alive with adventure and danger, sword fights and heists, hatred and love, Robin: Lady of Legend is the never-before-told tale of the girl who became Robin Hood.
