L’histoire est totalement différente de ce que j’avais vue et lue antérieurement donc ce fut une surprise qui m’a un peu dérouté. Pourquoi ? Parce qu’on y raconte plutôt l’histoire de Robin avant qu’il devienne ce que nous connaissons de lui, c’est-à-dire le “prince des voleurs”. Néanmoins, j’ai mieux compris la légende : ses origines et les raisons de ce surnom donnent plus de sens à l’histoire.
Cependant, il ne s’agit pas du meilleur roman de l’auteur à mon avis. En faite, c’est en More...

I found this old out of print Dumas version of Robin Hood at the Central Brooklyn library. It was so old I often had to be careful not to damage the pages while I was turning them. It's the first of a two part series that he wrote in 1872, this version was published in 1920. It's apparently one of his least recognized books because it took some research to find out anything about it; it's not listed on biographical websites.
The story is another tale of that worthy forester called More...

I LOVED Robin Hood and everything I could find about his legend when I was a child. Although this book was made into several movies (and most notably was the origin material for Errol Flynn's Robin Hood,) it does stray pretty far from the original material concerning Hood's legend.

Another childhood hero of mine. I haven't read the book since, and haven't liked any of the movies as an adult. For me Robin Hood wasn't a political figure. He was just a wild, free, man in the forest, living as he pleased, with some cool friends and a pretty girl.

WE enjoyed this one quite a bit. However, I sold it to the kids as the book about the guy who steals from the rich to give to the poor, but that doesn't even happen in the book. He does steal from the rich...but they keep the loot! I felt a bit jipped.

I have to say I was pretty disappointed by this book. I had very high expectations, because Dumas is my favorite author, but I wasn't satisfied. The dialogue was weak and the story seemed rushed. I thought that the characters were predictable and shallow. And it also bothered me how Robin or some of his friends would get captured by the baron over and over, and every time someone would just walk into the castle and let them out. Overall, far from being the equal of Monte Cristo or the Musketeers

Silly me. I read this 6 months ago and only now do I realize that this was so good because it was written by Alexandre Dumas. Of course! It is his style! It was an interesting Robin Hood and I grew to like the characters very much, and there was a wonderful ending.
I think I would recommend all books by him based on Count of Monte Cristo, this, and Man in the Iron Mask. Next up: 3 Musketeers. I believe I read it when I was ten and disliked it.

It's way different than all the Robin Hood movies, but it was nice... Ok, maybe it wasn't as good as I thought it would be, but the book still deserves 3 stars! :P

I don't like it when hero's grow old and die so after reading this I always start over and read the first few chapters again just to remember him at his best.
