Two Medieval Outlaws: Eustace the Monk and Fouke Fitz Waryn: The Romance of Eustace the Monk and Fouke Fitz Waryn by Glyn S. Burgess
I read "Eustace the Monk" and "Fouke Fitz Waryn" as part of an English module during my BA in 2012. Hard to remember much about them six years on but do recall both being mildly entertaining.
