Synopsis
​
The beloved rogue of Sherwood Forest triumphs over the ruthless Prince John and takes the throne – only to become a tyrant himself.
In a saga spanning a half-century, this action packed, adult rated tale vividly explores the seductive undertow of power as it transforms a legendary hero into a despot.
Maid Marian, Friar Tuck, Little John, King Richard and the legend’s other characters are complex figures alive with raw passions, dark impulses, ribald humor and diverse genders.
