About the Book

It is 1194, and the devil is indeed loose-- In Sherwood Forest. Once known as the Templar assassin Guy de Gisbourne, dispossessed noble Gamelyn Boundys has come to Sherwood Forest with conflicting oaths. One is of duty: demanding he tame the forest's druidic secrets and bring them back to his Templar Masters. The other is of heat and heart: given to the outlaw Robyn Hood, avatar of the Horned Lord, and the Maiden Marion, embodiment of the Lady Huntress. The three of them--Summerlord, Winter King, and Maiden of the Spring--are bound by yet another promise, that of fate: to wield the covenant of the Shire Wode and the power of the Ceugant, the magical trine of all worlds. Uneasy oaths begin a collision course when not only Gamelyn but Robyn and Marion are summoned to the siege of Nottingham by the Queen. Her promise is that Gamelyn will regain his noble family's honor of Tickhill, and the outlaws of the Shire Wode will have a royal pardon. But King Richard has returned to England, and the price of his mercy might well be more than any of them can afford.

Review :
"Hennig's Wode series continues to reinvent the legend of Robin Hood... Thick with conflict and intrigue, this retelling turns a well-known legend into a fresh, earthy tale of human passions twisted by politics and ancient powers." --Publishers Weekly "There's nothing quite so exciting as an author taking an overused traditional narrative and breathing full and rich life into it the way that Hennig does with her retelling of the Robin Hood/Green Man stories in her Greenwode series. I was smitten, right from the beginning." --Charles DeLint "Hennig expertly weaves the threads together in seductive, evocative prose that put me in the scene as few others have ever done... An enthralling transformation of folklore and legend into something wonderfully original from start to finish." --Susan R. Matthews "The prose is poetic, powerful, insightful. Hennig has a masterful command of weaponry and battle-speak, as well of wode magic. This is a soul-plumbing, life-changing experience." --Historical Novel Society Review "Given the author's innate ability to take classic lore and make it new again through works of fantasy, fans of other genres or literature are sure to enjoy these." --Amazing Stories Magazine "An intensely emotional, breathtaking version of the Robin Hood legend... Beautifully showcases the cultural and religious upheaval between peasant versus nobility, oppressed versus oppressors... Highly recommended." --Bella Online "A complex, meticulously researched, and vividly realised re-imagining of the Robin Hood myth, which depicts Robin and Guy as lovers instead of sworn enemies." --A Swimming Pool Library "It felt like discovering a fine wine. There was incredible tension: romantic, character-driven, and plot-driven. This isn't a light sip of a read." --Queer SciFi "With The Wode books, Hennig weaves Welsh mythology into the classic tale and reimagines Robin Hood and Guy of Gisborne as lovers and Maid Marian as Robin's sister-and all three entwined by magic and fate. The worldbuilding is intricate, the language is gorgeous... and the characters are achingly flawed. It's the best Robin Hood retelling I've encountered." --Kathy Shin, Pages below the Vaulted Sky
