Lionhearts, Nathan Makaryk

 

 

Thank you Penguin Random House for this book in exchange for an honest review

 

 

 

Synopsis:

All will be well when King Richard returns . . . but King Richard has been captured.

To raise the money for his ransom, every lord in England is raising taxes, the French are eyeing the empty throne, and the man they called, “Robin Hood,” the man the Sherriff claims is dead, is everywhere and nowhere at once.

He’s with a band of outlaws in Sherwood Forest, raiding guard outposts. He’s with Nottingham’s largest gang, committing crimes to protest the taxes. He’s in the lowest slums of the city, conducting a reign of terror against the city’s most vulnerable. A hero to some, a monster to others, and an idea that can’t simply be killed.

But who’s really under the hood?

 

 

 

 

Review:

To say that I was excited to read this book would be an understatement. I absolutely loveeee Robin Hood and Nottingham (the first book) was absolutely wonderful!

Lionhearts, didn’t hit the mark for me or rather, it wasn’t as enjoyable as Nottingham was. Whilst the characters were still are entertaining and delightful as they were in the first one, they got caught up on a book that really lacked a plot.

Through the lack of a real plot, you get heavily involved with the characters again, you follow their stories, side with the good against the evil. I adore them, I love the brilliant Robin Hood vibes with the creative retelling but the plot wasn’t there.
