Lionclaw: A Tale of Rowan Hood

(3) 4-6 Despite the subtitle, the heroine of Springer's previous novel about Robin Hood's daughter plays a minor (albeit important) role in this slim book. The story revolves around fifteen-year-old Lionel, the clumsy, effeminate, seven-foot bard in Rowan's band of outlaws, who can charm elves with his voice but refuses to learn how to fight properly. An exciting, easy-to-read addition to Robin Hood lore.
