| I'm on blog break through July. |
In The Rebels of Cordovia by Linda Weaver Clarke, the time period is set in the late 1700s. Centuries after the legendary Robin Hood, a group of men and women find themselves fighting for the same cause: for their rights, for freedom of speech, and equality. Robin’s Rebels realize they must fight against the tyranny of a wicked king and help the people survive this oppression. In the small country of Cordovia, groups of rebels begin springing up, but its Robin’s Rebels who get the attention of the king.
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?

Anything set in a different time period is bound to be interesting. Girl power, go! :)
ReplyDeleteSounds very interesting. I hold great respect for authors willing to do historical fiction/ time pieces.
ReplyDeleteI imagine he'll be surprised.
ReplyDeleteAnd look, another Weaver!
If he's a man typical of the 18th century, he'll probably be shocked, stunned--maybe even horrified! Then again, if he was a typical man of the 18th century, he probably wouldn't be leading a rebellion. Interesting story.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun read. And hope you're having a good blog break.
