When I could point out a bunch on every single page there is a problem. It takes a lot for me to see a grammar mistake. I don't know if the author made the mistakes on purpose or if she just had a poor editior, but there were so many grammar mistakes in this novel. I didn't think I would be able to finish this novel. I do have to admit there was a point where I was ready to give up Scarlet. There was also lots of fight scenes and blood shed during Scarlet. That was a part I missed in the original novel is I don't think they stressed enough how much the people of Nottingham where really hurting where we got the full extend of their hurt in Scarlet. Gaughen kept many elements from the original tale including Robin and his band robbing from the rich to give to the poor. Much had just one arm, but he was determined to do what he could.Ī.C. Much the miller's son was the last main character.

He was willing to fight for Scarlet, but at the end of the day wasn't afraid to confess his feelings for Scarlet. John Little was a bit soft in this novel. He cared about his band and he cared about the people of Nottingham. He acted tough, but was a very caring person. Robin Hood was called Rob most of the novel. All her secrets led to how she joined Robin Hood's merry band. She had a shattered past that we got clues about throughout the novel. Scarlet was a fiesty, tough, and insecure main character. Gaughen's big change to Robin Hood's story. Scarlet in this story is still Robin Hood right hand, but in this tale Scarlet is a girl. The main character Scarlet is a twist of the character Will Scarlet in the classic tale. Scarlet is a retelling of the classic tale Robin Hood. It’s only her fierce loyalty to Robin-whose quick smiles and sharp temper have the rare power to unsettle her-that keeps Scarlet going and makes this fight worth dying for. Helping the people of Nottingham outwit the corrupt Sheriff of Nottingham could cost Scarlet her life as Gisbourne closes in. Only the Hood and his band know the truth: the agile thief posing as a whip of a boy is actually a fearless young woman with a secret past. Posing as one of Robin Hood’s thieves to avoid the wrath of the evil Thief Taker Lord Gisbourne, Scarlet has kept her identity secret from all of Nottinghamshire. Many readers know the tale of Robin Hood, but they will be swept away by this new version full of action, secrets, and romance.
