Is there an outlaw band running around Sherwood Forest, with someone called Hood as their leader? Absolutely. Let me be quite frank in saying that I would not label this book a Robin Hood retelling exactly. I read it, of course, because I had read that Robin Hood was involved and it sounded different and interesting – most of which proved true enough. That being said, while I am sure going back to read the other two would produce many ‘aha, that makes sense now!’ moments, I felt able to follow the characters and the plot fairly well. Review: This book is actually the third in the Time Riders series, and I have not read the other two. With the Holy Grail at the center of all the chaos. During the reign of Richard the Lionheart, to be exact. Now they function as Time Riders, traveling through time and space to protect the world as we know it from those who would seek to change it – and in this adventure, they find themselves unraveling massive changes during the Middle Ages. And they all have one thing in common: they are supposed to be dead. Summary: Maddy, Liam and Sal are three unlikely friends – unlikely considering the fact that they all come from different times.
