But before you dive into this novel, you should do two things. The first is watch (or rewatch) the Disney Robin Hood from 1973. The second thing is to binge watch Leverage (2008-2012). If time is of the essence, just watch "The Scheherazade Job" (season 3, episode 4).

At its most basic level, Travelers Along the Way is a look at the crusades from the the invaded's point of view. Richard who is often played as the great king and the victim is presented here as a villain (one of a handful).

this book was insanely enjoyable. i absolutely loved rahma. i also love how this was set in a time period that isn’t commonly written about and instead of glorifying richard i, it shows how terrible the crusades were. this ensemble was so interesting.

Set during the Third Crusade, Travelers Along the Away is a gender-bent Robin Hood retelling following a muslim main character! As someone who loves books from any POV, I am one who does love when the main character talks to their audience, it really feels like you’re connected to the book when they do that and I love it! 

If you love the story of Robin Hood at all, then pick yourself up a copy!  This story is full of shenanigans, wit, thievery, action, adventure and so much more! If you’re always looking to add a diverse read to your shelves, this book would be fabulous!! As I said, it follows a Muslim main character but the other characters all follow different beliefs as well as there is LGBTQ rep in this book so it was just overall, amazing! 

Travelers Along the Way doesn’t have much romance at all (sorry for the fans of romance based plots) but this book felt like a breath of fresh air. It’s not romance driven but more focused on helping the “little people” and all the good things the classic Robin Hood would do. I do wish the characters were more flushed out but overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this book!

Read if you like:
- Ya historical fiction retelling’s 
- Not romance driven
