Robin of Sherwood

A year has passed since Robin of Loxley's death; the band of outlaws has scattered, and the people's enemies savor their triumph. Now, Robert of Huntingdon has been chosen by Herne the Hunter to continue Robin's work and lead the resistance in Sherwood.

Rumours are spreading through Nottinghamshire, that Robin Hood is back from the dead with a vengeance and that the band of outlaws once again operates in Sherwood Forest. Robert of Huntingdon must then use cunning and subterfuge.

Friar Tuck saves a young woman from being attacked and brings her back to the outlaws' camp. In the middle of the night, the woman wakes Robert and identifies herself as the daughter of his godfather explaining that the two of them must go to him.

After driving de Rainault out of Nottingham Castle, the new Sheriff then announces that a group of random Nottinghamshire villagers will be hanged every day until Robin Hood decides to give himself up.

Meanwhile, the other outlaws protect an elderly pilgrim from being killed by robbers and, as the woman is sick and alone, they accompany her on her journey to a local abbey, which houses a miraculous healing relic of the saint Ciricus.

Much falls into a forester's trap and is badly wounded. Trying to find a village with a physician, the outlaws become lost and are finally led to a small village called Cromm Cruac. The villagers welcome them, and nothing seems out of the ordinary.

King John wearies of having Nottingham's tax money constantly stolen by Robin Hood; realising that Robin Hood thrives because the common people trust and support him. The King sets out to tarnish Robin Hood's reputation.

Much is caught by Gisburne, thrown into the Nottingham Castle dungeons, and sentenced to be hanged. Meanwhile, the legendary outlaw Adam Bell returns to Nottingham, causing mayhem as he kidnaps the Sheriff's young nephew Martin.

The King decides to divorce his queen and marry the 12-year-old Isabella of Angoulême, moving the rejected, outraged Queen Hadwisa to plot with her relatives for the King's deposition. The outlaws save Arthur, who arrives in Sherwood chased by soldiers.

John decides to marry his long-time girlfriend Meg and leave the band of outlaws. The wedding plans are halted, however, when Lord Edgar, Robert's uncle, reaches Sherwood Forest with the news that Robert's father has been accused of treason by the King.

The Sheriff is ordered by King John to collect grain from the villages of Nottinghamshire. Knowing that the people won't survive the winter without their hard-earned harvest, the outlaws steal back the grain the next morning...

The purpose of Gulnar and his Sons of Fenris is revealed: to bring about the prophesied "Time of the Wolf," an age of famine and destruction. To that end, Gulnar uses evil magic to create a copy of Robin Hood
