Centuries after the legendary Robin Hood, a group of men and women find themselves fighting for the same cause. In this battle for freedom, a tender love story begins to blossom. Daniel, a rogue and a leader of the Freemen, doesn’t realize that the sweet, feminine woman he has met - and is falling - for happens to be the leader of Robin’s Rebels. Realizing the importance of uniting all the rebel groups, Daniel tries to recruit Robin’s Rebels, but they refuse. Now he has to find a way to convince them. When he finds out the leader is actually a woman, what will his reaction be?

The narrator was good! This was a fun Robin Hood retelling. The romance in this story is clean.

A fun clean story!

King Rupert of Cordovia has driven his Kingdom into poverty while raising taxes. There are two groups – Robins Rebels and the Freemen – who in my opinion have the same goal. They end up banning together to defeat King Rupert.

Daniel meets Robin at the local market and feels an instant attraction. Although, at first Daniel only knows her as Marie.

Mrs. Clarke does an excellent job giving a physical description of her characters. This book has lots of adventure, humorous situations and a sweet, passionate romance. Carolyn Kashner gives a delightful performance doing a great job with the accents.

Rebels and Rouges

This was an enjoyable and clean romance. I liked that I could really rally behind the different characters (like Robin and Daniel) because they were good people that really cared about the welfare of others. I really appreciate "clean" books, but there were a couple times that the story came off a little unrealistic because it seemed like more effort was put into conveying the "decency" of the characters and situations than actually developing the story. I liked the comparison to Robinhood and liked that Robin was a girl. I listened to the audio version of this book, and I thought the narrator was decent/good - my only complaint is that she sometimes came off a little robotic in trying to stay consistent with the time period. Overall, though, an entertaining and enjoyable book perfect for readers of clean romance.

This was an enjoyable, clean romance. I liked that I could cheer for Robin and Daniel because they were good people that really cared about the welfare of others. I liked that Robin was a girl - I love a good strong female lead! I listened to the audio version of this book, and I thought the narrator was decent/good - my only complaint is that she sometimes came off a little robotic, but it wasn’t bad. Overall, though, an entertaining and enjoyable book perfect for readers of clean romance.

This book takes place in the fictional land of Cordovia, a country under the thumb of a terrible king. He usurped the throne from the rightful ruler and has oppressed the people with increasingly high taxes and unfair laws. His soldiers terrorize the poor people, and only aristocrats are safe from his oppression.

More and more rebel groups are popping up in each town, among them The Freeman, led by Daniel, and Robin's Rebels, led by Robin. Daniel intends to merge all the local rebel groups to create a force large enough to overthrow the king, but Robin's Rebels remains a holdout. When Daniel challenges Robin to an archery contest to determine whether or not the groups will merge, he doesn't realize that the masked man he challenges is the beautiful woman he recently met and fell for.

I really enjoyed this lighter fantasy romance, it was a nice change of pace from more hard core fantasy but also had more drama than a traditional romance. Robin and Daniel were characters you want to root for, and there were also many side characters with large personalities like Robin's father. There were so many funny scenes that put a smile on my face. It was an entertaining listen!

The narrator did a great job, I've listened to her before and her narration is always enjoyable. She has a calm easy pace that pulls me into the story. I received a copy of the audiobook, and I'm voluntarily leaving a review.

Any additional comments?

The Rebels of Cordovia is a very entertaining and enjoyable Robin Hood story. It has action, adventure, and a little romance. It also includes a little mystery due the disappearance of the son of the former king (years before the story begins) who was beloved by all. Where is he now and why hasn’t he returned to Cordovia to overthrow the tyrant who is ruling over Cordovia with an iron fist and who taxes his subjects into extreme poverty?

I became engaged in the Rebels of Cordovia and characters almost immediately. The heroine is the daughter of the local baker, who also leads a small group of vigilantes that fight for basic freedoms and rights. Like the legendary Robin Hood, they steal from the rich and give back to the poor. The story is basically how she and another vigilante leader unite all the various rebel groups and overthrow the vile king. They also fall in love in the process.

I listened to the Audible version of this story narrated by Carolyn Kashner and enjoyed it tremendously. She did a great job narrating with varying voices for both male and female characters. Thankfully this story is the first book in The Rebels series by Linda Weaver Clarke, so I can look forward to listening to other great adventures in this compelling audiobook series!

This review was designed to not give away the plot, but to give the reader some facts to judge whether or not they would want to listen/read this story.

What I liked about this audiobook:

• A classic tale of a suppressed people fighting for freedom.
• I liked the storyline. It reminds me of a recounting of a tale. Most of the story is told simply.

This recording has a little hiss in it. The narrator is able to do both male and female voices. Her voice is young sounding.

The writing seems to be geared towards teenagers and young adults.
I just could not connect with this story. It did not pull me in. I don't know if it is the story or the narrator.

At my request, I was given a free copy of this audiobook from the narrator. I have voluntarily left my review and my opinions were my own.

This story is OK

I dont always get into historical
Fiction but this book grabbed me right away and took me back to s Robin Hood era. My kg regret was that Robin wasnt incognito more often or for longer. Other than that the performance was top notch and the story moved along quickly and excitingly. I couldn't believe the twist at the end!!!! A great audio read

Charming and exciting

I enjoyed this twist on Robin Hood. The best part of this series was definitely the characters. I found myself fully rooting for Robin Marie and Daniel, and I particularly enjoyed the part of the book where they were competing against each other. I loved the plot of the book, and I was completely surprised by the ending, which I didn’t see coming at all.

My major complaint is that the first half of the audiobook had quite a lot of background static, which could be quite distracting.

Pretty Good

A different take on Robin Hood. Robin has a band of rebels. They are fighting against a king who really could care less about his subjects. Robin’s band of rebels agree to join forces with another group...there is a unique twist. Robin is a girl and this girl is tough and she can hit a target with her bow and arrow better than any man. Well, Robin and the leader of the other band fall in love. This does not stop them from reaching their goals. I enjoyed many aspects of this read. The story is interesting and very unique. I especially enjoyed the historical aspects. It is a little overly dramatic in places but all in all a pretty good tale!
