this robin hood retelling follows rahma al-hud, who loyally followed her sister to fight in jerusalem during the third crusade. now, though, she’s determined to get herself and her sister out alive. but because of her sister’s persistence, she decides to take this one last mission with her.
i’ll be honest, i don’t know much about the crusades, besides the fact that they happened. i’ve also never been super into robin hood (though i do support his mission). however, since i’ve enjoyed the other remixed classics books i’ve read, i decided to pick this one up. i’m very glad i did, because i was so immersed in this story and these characters. rahma and her sister, zeena, meet fellow travelers along their way to jerusalem, and it was so interesting to read about everyone’s experiences and interactions with one another.
i can’t wait to read more books from this author!
