My thoughts ~

I thoroughly enjoyed this reverse take on the age old story of Robinhood and his compassion for the poor. Steal from the rich to feed the poor. A bit of thievery was against the law, but someone had to provide for the poor and homeless.

Young people will love the excitement and beautiful love story that keeps the suspense flowing. I'd rate the book PG-13 due to some violence that may not be appropriate for a younger age group.

Artfully descriptive with a fast pace, there's no room for boredom in Hedlund's most recent YA novel. Don't save this one just for the younger set. It's a great read for adults!
