Overview
Step into a bold, modern retelling of England's most legendary outlaw with the Robin Hood 4 Books Collection Set by Robert Muchamore. Set in a near-future town where a corrupt sheriff and a ruthless gangster squeeze every resident dry, teenage Robin and his makeshift crew of friends and family fight back with hacking skills, clever heists, and daring stunts instead of longbows. Fast, funny, and packed with twists, this brand-new paperback set is perfect for reluctant readers and adventure fans who want a fresh spin on a timeless legend.
About the Books
This brand-new paperback collection brings together four fast-moving adventures from Robert Muchamore's Robin Hood series, a contemporary reimagining set in the fictional town of Locksley. Instead of medieval forests, Robin and his allies navigate abandoned shopping malls, industrial estates, and waterways, using modern tools like drones, jet skis, and computer hacking to outwit their enemies. The villains are just as memorable as the original legend, with a scheming sheriff and the menacing Guy Gisborne standing in for the corrupt authority figures of old, while Robin's own found family of friends and siblings stands in for his Merry Men. Each book layers in a new caper, from elaborate heists and paintball skirmishes to piracy on the water and high-stakes drone missions, deepening the rivalry between Robin's crew and the powers trying to crush them. Muchamore, best known for his CHERUB spy series, brings the same pacing and grounded action he's known for, tuned for a slightly younger, middle-grade audience. Themes of loyalty, fairness, and standing up to bullies and corrupt power run through every installment, giving the series real heart underneath the chases and gadgets. Readers who enjoy fast plotting, likeable underdog heroes, and a good dose of humor will find plenty here. This four-book paperback set is a great way to experience the story arc released so far in one go, whether for a young reader working through a summer reading list, a classroom library, or a gift for a kid who loves adventure with a modern twist.

About the Author
Robert Muchamore is a British author best known for creating the CHERUB series, which follows teenage spies working for a secret intelligence agency, along with its prequel series Henderson's Boys. His books have sold in large numbers worldwide and are known for fast pacing, believable action, and morally complicated characters rather than simple heroes and villains. With Robin Hood, Muchamore takes a classic legend and drags it into the present day, swapping bows and arrows for hacking skills and heists while keeping the same underdog-versus-corrupt-power energy that made his earlier series so popular with young readers.
