Sherwood by Meagan Spooner

4.0

In college I was fortunate enough to take a class about legends. One of my biggest takeaways is that a legend (or a myth) is actually changeable based on who is doing the telling, the context of their lives and the culture that informed those lives. It's one of the reasons that I so enjoyed this retelling of the Robin Hood myth that has Marian taking up the mantle (and all of the difficulties that entails). While it drags in spots, it zings to life whenever the swashbuckling and arrow-shooting comes to the forefront, as in any good Robin Hood story, and this is definitely a good Robin Hood story.
