In a Dark Wood

(2) YA Geoffrey, the Sheriff of Nottingham, is beset with a variety of troubles: his wife doesn't care for him, the court fool is always mocking him, the king is enraged over the depredations of the outlaw Robin Hood, and he has doubts about his own bravery. This complex, many-layered novel, which does not shirk in its descriptions of filth, violence, and sexual desire, offers an unusually subtle character study and a plot full of surprises.
