The adventures of Robin Hood continue, returning to Nottingham and Sherwood Forest, later in the reign of William of Normandy who had conquered the Anglo-Saxon people when Robin was young. A now older Robin has remained fiercely committed to freeing his fellow countrymen from absolute rule by any king, be he English or Norman. But this long standing rivalry is soon overshadowed by a more dangerous enemy— a foe from the outside who threatens William's entire kingdom, including the way of life of Robin's own England, a life that was largely preserved under Norman rule. This foreign threat sets in motion explosive adventures as Robin engages in fierce sea battles, secret undercover operations behind enemy lines, and bloody saber skirmishes with fresh troops from the French Army.
