This companion book to the author's highly acclaimed "In a Dark Wood" tells the story of one of the most beloved literary legends of all Little John. Michael Cadnum takes us on a journey through medieval England and deep into the heart of Sherwood Forest. From his humble beginnings as John Tannerson, son of the Tanner, we watch John Little's story unfold as he grows into one of our most beloved heroes of lore—Litte John. The adventure begins on a ferry north of Nottingham. A thwarted attempt to save a man's life forces John into the life of an outlaw. To escape capture, he hides in Sherwood Forest, where he joins Robin Hood and his band of merry men—and the excitement begins.
