''The Outlaws of Sherwood'' is a retelling of the [[Robin Hood]] legend by [[Robin McKinley]]. It deliberately deconstructs the figures and setting, trying for historical accuracy and psychological plausibility.

=== This novel provides examples of: ===
 
* [[Bittersweet Ending]]
Line 10 ⟶ 9:
* [[Shrouded in Myth]]: Robin Hood. Among other things, Robin is quite possibly the ''worst'' archer in the band; all his famous trick shots turn out to have been dumb luck or have actually been performed by one of the other Merry Men and attributed to him.
* [[Sweet Polly Oliver]]: Cecil(y). Someone ends up [[Sweet On Polly Oliver]].
* [[Twice -Told Tale]]
* [[Wound That Will Not Heal]]: References a less uncanny version of the trope when Richard says that the climate in the Holy Land means wounds don't heal like they should.
