have just finished "outlaw" by Angus Donald it's a story about Robin Hood but without the usual romantic type stuff about robbing from the rich and giving to the poor ,Robin does rob the rich ,but is more like a modern day gangster running a protection racket and the expence of the villages of Sherwood ,it's best quality for me is that it deals with outlaw life in the 1100's in a hard tough bloodthristy manner as I think it would have been.

a second book in the series in out next year
