About this listen

In Merry England, in the time of old when good King Henry the Second ruled the land, there lived within the green glades of Sherwood Forest near Nottingham Town a famous outlaw whose name was Robin Hood. No archer ever lived that could speed a gray goose shaft with such skill and cunning as his, nor were there ever such yeomen as the sevenscore merry men that roamed with him through the greenwood shades.

He stole from the rich and gave to the poor, and in so doing became an undying symbol of virtue. But most important, Robin Hood and his band of merry men offer young audiences more than enough adventure and thrills to keep them listening intently. Filled with action, villains, and surprises, who could resist the arrows flying, danger lurking, and medieval intrigue?

Critic Reviews

"Experienced reader Vance's proper British accent and sprightly pacing keep the action humming.... Not just for kids, this audio holds adult appeal as well." ( Booklist Audio Review)

What a great story that is hard to put down and excellently narrated! With the old Englishe words, expressions, accents and names it is better to listen to this book rather read it on paper! Such a great imagination to come up with this story. Definitely worth listening to! 10/10

A great story that is excellently narrated and hard to put down

I did enjoy this book, but I admit I lost interest at times. Would put it aside and come back to it, refreshed and interested again.

Classic for good reason.
