Hunted like an animal by Norman invaders, Bran ap Brychan, heir to the throne of Elfael, has abandoned his father’s kingdom and fled to the greenwood. There, in the primeval forest of the Welsh borders, danger surrounds him - for this woodland is a living, breathing entity with mysterious powers and secrets. Bran must find a way to make it his own if he is to survive and become King Raven.

From deep in the forest, Bran, Will Scarlet, and Friar Tuck form a daring plan for deliverance, knowing that failure means death for them all - and the dreams of the oppressed people of Wales.

An Enjoyable take on the Robin Hood tale

I always like Lawhead's books. The King Raven series is an enjoyable take on the Robin Hood tale. It is also always nice to hear / read a story that is not afraid to have religion in it and portrays it in a non-negative light.

great story narrator skills of an illiterate 2 year old

the story was great and I really liked how hard the author worked on it. I especially liked his research and writing with his inclusion of the church and pious characters. too many authors these days don't include religion. biggest problem with this book was the narrattor gleefully butchered English and Welsh names. c'mon man learn to pronounce Worcester before narrating.

old story told new

Very entertaining and easy to listen too. I recommend this edition of Robin Hood and his merry men.

Great Robin Hood Spinoff

Loved every bit of it. The actor did an excellent job with voices and keeping my imagination and attention engaged.

great book series

loved it can't wait to hear something else from stephen lawhead. going to get started now

King Raven not Robin Hood

I prefer this Welsh version of this much loved tale. Bran is a true but reluctant hero.

An Enjoyable Storyline and Performance

I am about to finish book one and felt compelled to write this review. It is my first introduction to the author and I am enjoying the storyline. It is easy to follow the plot and the characters are believable. In regards to the narrator, he has a nice voice that easy on the ears and adds depth to the story through his tonal changes depending which character is speaking.

Nice reworking of the Robin Hood story.

I really enjoyed this book, as I have most of Lawhead's work. Narrator has a good voice, but I wish he'd put a little bit of research into Welsh names. Cymru is not pronounced Kimroo. Still, he improved as the series went on and it wasn't a deal-breaker.

excellent orator

interesting story, enjoyed the historical references, Robin Hood told in an enthralling story. listened to all 3 books, immensely enjoyable

Great Adventure Read

This was a great read, reminiscent of childhood daydreaming escapades. The web of lies and deception, against the backdrop of the common man’s struggles to survive.
The classic story in a great audiobook form. A great companion during daily tasks.

4/5 stars!
