Welcome to Litsy!

An island theme park, similar to West World or Jurassic Park but for Dungeons and Dragons and Fantasy lovers, has been hijacked by the creators and a force field is keeping the corporate owner out.

Addy is hired, along with a few mercenaries, to sneak in and get the shield removed.

The writing isn‘t great and it‘s a little predictable, but I still loved it for its many fandom references- unicorns, sphynx, dragons, LOTR and more!

📖 Robin Hood by the Walt Disney Company

I collect RH books and this is my 72nd.

Not my fav Lex Croucher, (I like their adult stuff better and am not really into YA books generally these days) but this continuation of the Robin Hood story featuring his granddaughter was a lovely adventure fantasy romance. The premise is the Merry Men have lost their way and are a bit too much like the bad guys. It has awesome found family vibes, as well as a great blend of humour and seriousness. The sapphic romance is very grumpy / sunshine!

Robin Hood doesn't figure very much in this book, as the main character is his granddaughter, but whenever he is mentioned, I have a hard time picturing him as a human, and not the sexy fox from the old Disney movie 😂

4.5/5

When Clem is kidnapped by Captain Mariel and her crew of Merry Men, she assumes it's because reputation as a healer who is experimenting with more effective treatments, instead it's to make sure her guardian understands that consequences of healing anyone associated with the Sheriff of Nottingham.

I thought this was a fun re-imagining of Robin Hood focused on his granddaughter.

Gisborne said nothing for a time, watching her. Then he took her hand in both of his and raised it to his lips, bowing his head and lingering with all the chivalrous deliberation of a knight out of legend. “Long live Robin Hood.”

Just like Gwen & Art are not in love, the new novel by #LexCroucher is fabulous and a lot of fun! Definitely don‘t read it if you are looking for the biblically accurate Robin Hood stories (which I adore!), but read it for the witty dialogue, the fast-paced plot and the building romance between Clem & Mariel 🥰.
