My Review:
I give this book a 5 out of 5.
The importance of Friar Tuck to Rhi Bran is extremely evident in the thrilling conclusion to the King Raven trilogy. Bran and his Grellon suffer both losses and victories and the danger escalates as an even larger foe comes at them. This was an epic ending to the trilogy and left me breathless many times throughout.
You can purchase Tuck through Amazon in hard copy or Kindle format.
