Sinossi

The Outlaw of Torn by Edgar Rice Burroughs is a historical novel published as a serial in 1914. It takes place in thirteenth-century England during the Second Barons’ War, where Norman of Torn, raised by a fencing master driven by vengeance, grows up to hate everything English. Over time, he leads one of the largest bands of thieves in England and finds his violent life drawing him into the rebellion. His involvement brings him into contact with Simon de Montfort, and he also develops feelings for his daughter. Yet a notable resemblance to Prince Edward suggests a deeper secret about Norman’s true identity.
