Critics Review

Joyous writing, full of verve and control.– Conn Iggulden

Joyous writing, full of verve and control. - Conn Iggulden

A gloriously entertaining reboot … Donald’s Robin is a fascinating figure - enigmatic, unpredictable, charismatic and more Benedict Cumberbatch than Errol Flynn. Huge fun. - The Times

Angus Donald delivers rip-roaring novels that fling you headlong into the dark undercurrents of the medieval world, written in a taut and compelling style and seething with skulduggery. A master of adventure. - Robyn Young

Angus Donald leads you into the familiar forests of Medieval England…and then all hell breaks loose! Far from the figure of popular legend, Donald’s Robin Hood is a brutal, cunning warlord who will let nothing stand in his way. A fresh, lively and welcome take on one of the world’s most famous outlaws. And yet, it stirred in me a nostalgia for all the great stories of my childhood; those that thrilled me, inspired me and shaped who I am today. Complex heroes, craven villains, brutal fights…a boy’s own romp that flies like an arrow from a yew bow - Giles Kristian on King’s Man
