Robin Hood Tales #3

When King Richard the Lion-Hearted sends a secret scroll to Robin Hood—one that contains vital intelligence about his return to England—a traitor intercepts the message and rushes it toward the treacherous Prince John, who schemes to use it to destroy his half-brother and seize the throne. Robin Hood and his Merry Men race against time to recover the scroll before Prince John can read its contents and set a devastating ambush. With the fate of King Richard and all of England hanging in the balance, Robin must infiltrate Castle Dhru and outwit the usurper's forces in a daring midnight raid.

When a miserly miller hoards flour and exploits the poor of Mimms, Alan a Dale and Friar Tuck set out to teach him a lesson in charity—only to discover his hidden gold and attract the unwanted attention of the miller's hired mercenaries. As the two merry men find themselves outmatched and trapped by the waterwheel, they must rely on quick wits and unexpected allies to turn the tide and ensure the miller's wealth reaches those who need it most.

When Robin Hood rescues a wounded knight in red armor from masked attackers on a forest road, he believes he's made a noble ally—until an invitation to Fenwick Castle reveals a treacherous trap. Suspecting the gracious host isn't who he claims to be, Robin must uncover the truth behind the deception before the real Lord Fenwick meets a darker fate.

King Richard falls into the hands of the cruel Saracens during the Crusades, and only the courage of his loyal servant Jatho stands between the Lion-Hearted and his doom.

"The Rescue of King Richard" is a tale of duty, valor, and the price of disobedience from Robin Hood Tales #3 (1956).
