Joseph Krueger: The Dark Years, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Can Robin's love for Marian survive brutal conscription into wars and crusades? Can Marian's love for Robin endure royal lies and abuse?

After fifteen brutal years apart, Robin and Marian fight to reclaim the life stolen from them, rekindling a flame scarred by war, betrayal, and loss. Robin has returned a vicious crusader, hardened on the battlefield and earning accolades from King Richard himself. Marian has barely survived as a pawn in a treacherous royal scheme. England needs them. They need each other.

In this dark, gritty reimagining of the Robin Hood legend, an angry and violent Robin Hood resists rallying others to his cause. But his desperate, increasingly reckless search for Marian draws danger from every shadow. His band of not-so-merry men and women finally unites in an explosive melee just as Robin reaches Marian, desperate for answers.

Packed with mystery, raw pain, brutal fights, and extraordinary villains, this sweeping novel pits the lovers against cunning royal schemers and their deadly henchmen. All the legendary characters have assembled: the handsome and dynamic Scottish warrior Will Scarlet, the fierce warrior priest Friar Tuck, the mighty Little John, and new addition Grace Moore - a disenfranchised queen's spy. Together, they step forward as historically significant figures who alter the destiny of a nation. First in a planned trilogy. Book Two, Rise of Marian.
