Reviewing DAUNTLESS by Dina L. Sleman
This is book one of her series, and it was enjoyable. Looking forward to the other books in the series, even though this is 'complete' in itself. The cover is fitting for the subject...introducing a female Robin Hood... or, as she calls him in the book, Robyn of the Hoyd. Enjoyed the prose she uses to tell the tale; it will instantly grab you and put you into the 1216 British time period.
She makes a beautiful statement in the book, 'if good men will not stand against injustice, then we have no hope.' The children are delightful, and enjoyed the 'sunshine men' and the miraculous healing in the story. While the heroin is only 17, I believe all ages will enjoy the story and the time period it involves. Two heroes become friends, equally charming, handsome and good but only one gets the girl, which of course will lead to more stories in the series.
I received this book free from Bethany/Baker publishers for my honest review.
