Read: King Raven Trilogy

I'm beyond ecstatic that I have finally (FINALLY!) completed my King Raven series.

For those who didn't know, King Raven series is a trilogy featuring our favorite thief - Robin Hood and his band of thieves.

The author, Lawhead, is known for weaving amazing stories of fantasy and fiction.  And this time, he has decided to focus his energy to researching and creating a story about a hero whose sense of justice might be a little twisted (Rob the rich and give to the poor!) but endearing in so many ways.

Here, the Robin Hood legend is alive once again in the presence of Bran, a hesitant heir to the throne whose land and citizens were taken by oppressive conquerors and money grabbing Lords. The story requires him to produce thousands of gold coins to claim his land back and save his people.

What other recourse for this conflicted hero and his ragtag group but to steal?  Steal to set his people free and unite themselves against the enemy.

Just the kind of flawed but enigmatic hero we all would want to read about.

This summer, it's time you get yourself lost in a good fantasy book. This series is another epic offering from Lawhead who is dubbed as the master of historical fantasy.

I'd say, George RR Martin, you've met your match!
