This was an awful graphic novel. I chose it because I thought it would be interesting to reread Beowulf as a graphic novel instead of the poem. But instead I was annoyed at having wasted so much of my time. The battle scenes didn’t even have words. If I hadn’t read the poem, i wouldn’t even know what was going on. The graphics aren’t well drawn; it’s a lot of dark colors and ridiculous looking creatures. But if you’re a fan of little words and violent imagery, this is your book.
