Worth getting 2 Dec 2010
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Robin Hood is worth getting, there are lots of fun tales featured in the kindle edition and it is well formatted so is easy to use and access.

Some of the language is a bit old fashioned which may not be for everyones tastes. I struggled with some of the words myself and found myself skimming bits.

If you persevere however you will fnd the tales of Robin Hood to be a good, fun read.

I got fed up of seeing this on the "you have not bought it yet" list so downloaded expecting it to be terrible.

Kindle formatting is very good. Nice pagination and few typo's noted.

I liked the fake "prithe" , "quoth", etc. It made the book actually feel much more romantic.

With all the film and TV adaptations it's quite interesting to see where basic ideas came from and how they were developed.

All in all, a very gentle and enjoyable "light" read. Ideal if you just want a chapter at a time.

This book is great over-all story. It is a great adventure book for little boys. It will also please experienced readers with its great range of vocabulary.

This was sometimes difficult to read as the old english prose does not always flow. That said there are some great stories and tales included in this book. Read more

The book, on the whole, was sort of fun. The archaic language did make it more authentic, but one repeatedly used word which constantly screamed 'American writer' was the word... Read more

Robin Hood
Started to read this book, got as far as 60% seemed very slow on plot, too much emphasis on old english wording. The charactors seemed different from the people I expected. Read more

Not only Robin himself but all the band were outlaws and dwelled apart from other men, yet they were beloved by the country people round about, for no one ever came to jolly Robin for help in time of need and went away again with an empty fist. &quote;
