Some myths stay in the past, others haven't been written yet.
This is Robin Hood before SHE had the name.
In a world of checkpoints and algorithms, Nottingham owns the food, the government, and the watch on your wrist. It tracks your every heartbeat, treating data like a god given right.
By night, Addy hacks ration machines and drops food to the forgotten hiding in what's left of Sherwood. By day, she's the cute girl running the local coffee shop. Nottingham thinks she's another zero in the algorithm. But when CEO John Prince throws open the gates of his empire for a hackathon, Addy sees her shot to get inside the walls of the company that took everything from everyone.
She's not fighting alone. Scarlet, a tuxedoed shoulder cat with a top hat, sits pretty on his throne. Little John the mouse fights for Scarlet's respect, and Tucker the fry cook helps feed the forgotten. Then there's Much Miller, the coffee shop kid, named for the fact that everything is always just a little too much for him.
Then there's Marian. Buttoned up, and utterly convinced she could change Nottingham from the inside when she signed on. Instead she spent years polishing the machine.
She's the last person Addy should fall for, but love doesn't see sides. It sees the truth.
Sherwood is a Robin Hood remythologizing set in a corporate dystopian near future United States where the government has been swallowed by greed. Can a coffee slinging vigilante hacker, her merry men, and the girl on the wrong side of the wall spark the fire that lets freedom ring?
