Robin Hood was both; that is, he was a real person about whom fictional stories were made. I base my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles on the earliest sources, which are ballads dating from about the 14th century. In one of them King Edward -- most likely Edward II -- makes Robin Hood one of his yeomen. Edward II actually did have a valet and porter named Robyn Hod. My novel blends the stories in the ballads with what information is actually known about Robyn Hod; it's a half-serious attempt to re-create in fiction what may be the actual facts behind the Robin Hood legend.

Where can you find accurate information on Robin Hood?
Robin Hood is legend and folklore. Thus, accuracy may just depend on who is articulating the information, and nothing will be based on absolute fact. The best book on the possible actuality of Robin Hood is J.C.Holt's Robin Hood. My novel The Robin Hood Chronicles gets most of its information from Holt's book, though I am more positive in my identification than he is.
How near to reality is robin hood?
My novel The Robin Hood Chronicles is a half-serious attempt to re-create in fiction what may have been the reality behind the Robin Hood legend. It is based on the earliest sources, which are ballads about Robin Hood; on the life of a real Robyn Hod whose life matches that of the ballads' Robin at one point; and on the history of the time. I believe my novel is as close to reality as it is possible to get at this distance in time.
