Carrie Vaughn's The Ghosts of Sherwood
I generally like Vaughn’s works, so was excited to check out her latest, a novella about the children of Robin Hood and Maid Marian getting kidnapped by political rivals. And I did /like/ it, I just wished there was more to it! It’s barely over a hundred pages and feels shorter. The children (well, the daughters) are really interesting, and I would have liked to have seen more of them, or more of the court politics, or whatever. I know a sequel is forthcoming but this still would have benefited from being fleshed out a bit more. But I /did/ really enjoy the daughters and will be reading the sequel for sure. B+.
