Title: Easy Read - 2.5 Stars
Review: Maid Marian is an easy read. I have to agree with some earlier reviews that the author spends too much time telling and not enough showing. I liked the premise of Marian trying to control her own destiny and enlisting Robin Hood's aid in doing so, but somehow their actions fell flat. It seemed like all of the action oriented things happened off camera. Marian spends her time telling us about them, not really involved with them until the end.Overall, I'd give the book 2.5 stars.Anyone interested in an engrossing Maid Marian story might like to try Lady of the Forest by Jennifer Roberson. I read it in one night. The sequel Lady of Sherwood was not quite as involving, but still a good read.
Is the review positive or negative?
