Travelers Along the Way: A Robin Hood Remix by Aminah Mae Safi

5.0

You had me at "Robin Hood Remix" with a Muslim main character set in the Crusades. Safi achieved the incredibly difficult job of staying true to the merry tone of the original while also making the reader think about the complex racial, political, and religious issues going on during the time of the Crusades through her beautifully crafted characters. The gathering of the Green Hood's Merry Band of Outlaws is joyful to read and the serious moments are heartfelt and thought-provoking. Loved this read!
