Dude, in my canon he TOTALLY spoiler ) Cause she deserved to get her man, dammit.

Fun book. Light-hearted, somewhat boyish, jovial. Of course there's also torture and murder and warfare, but all of that doesn't stop the joviality of the characters. The Black Knight is noble and fun, Ivanhoe is noble and serious, Cedric is a guy's guy and everyone's drunk uncle, Athelstane is basically Dryden from The Vision of Escaflowne, Rowena is well-intentioned but useless, Locksley is clever and Rebecca... IS AWESOME.

Two thumbs up for the author Sir Walter Scott. I've read better and prettier books, but this is certainly an entertaining book.
