Michael Cadnum takes us on a journey through medieval England and deep into the heart of Sherwood Forest. From his humble beginnings as John Tanneson, son of the Tanner, we watch John Little¹s story unfold as he grows into one of our most beloved heroes of lore ­ Little John. The adventure begins on a ferry north of Nottingham, when a thwarted attempt to save a man¹s life forces John into the life of an outlaw. To escape capture, he hides in Sherwood Forest, where he joins Robin Hood and his band of merry men ­ and the excitement begins.
