Book Reviews of Lady of the Forest
Book Review: A Psychological Portrait of Legendary Characters
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a really captivating novel based upon the Robin Hood legend. While I anticipated the usual blend of intrigue, chivalry, adventure, and courtly romance, I wasn't prepared for the emotional force of this book. Roberson draws out the complex psychological conflicts experienced by people in vastly different circumstances. Her compassion for their trials and tribulations enables us to see some good in just about everyone, from the murderer, William Scarlet, to the Sheriff of Nottingham. Prince John is the only one who appears to have no redeeming quality, but that allows us the satisfaction of disliking him thoroughly.
