This historical novel, "The Outlaw of Torn," was written by Edgar Rice
Burroughs; he was the creator of Tarzan. This was Edgar's second novel;
his first was a science fiction novel named "The Princess of Mars," and
he is well known for his third work, "Tarzan of the Apes." The story of
this novel is set in the 13th century in England and tells us about the
fictitious outlaw Tom. He purportedly harried the nation at the time of
a power struggle between King Henry III and Simon de Montfort. Norman,
the supposed son of the Frenchman de Vac, the king's ex-fencing master,
has a grudge against his former employer and raises the boy to be a
simple, brutal human killing machine with a hatred of all things
English. This novel has war, historical romance, and revenge, all
together with courage and emotions.
