The Outlaw of Torn is a historical adventure novel written by Edgar Rice Burroughs. The story is set in 13th century England and follows the life of Norman of Torn, a young boy who is raised by a band of outlaws after his father is killed in battle. As he grows older, Norman becomes a skilled fighter and leader, and eventually becomes known as the Outlaw of Torn.The novel is divided into three parts. In the first part, Norman is introduced as a young boy and is taken in by the outlaws. He is trained in sword fighting and becomes a skilled warrior. In the second part, Norman becomes embroiled in the political struggles of the time, as he is caught between the warring factions of King Henry III and Simon de Montfort. In the third part, Norman's true identity is revealed, and he must fight to reclaim his rightful place in society.The Outlaw of Torn is a thrilling adventure story that combines historical fiction with action and romance. Burroughs' vivid descriptions of medieval life and battle scenes bring the story to life, and the character of Norman is a complex and compelling protagonist. The novel is a classic of the adventure genre, and has been widely praised for its exciting plot and vivid characters.HERE is a story that has lain dormant for seven hundred years.
