A classic and adventurous tale of a warrior and king.

I loved this short book. It was a quick read - actually more like three short stories - telling the ancient tale of Beowulf, the Scandanavian hero and king of Anglo-Saxon legend. Originally an epic poem written in Old English, Michael Morpurgo's retelling is both engaging and lyrical. His writing style hints at the antiquity of the stories and he has reproduced the emphasis of the original on alliterative language. Masterful.

I really like the story. My favorite character is Grendel the sea hag. I would recommend It. The story has lots of alliteration.

This book made my spine chill. It had three parts to it;the first one about Grendel and Beowulf,the second about Beowulf and Grendel's Mum and the last part about a dragon and Beowulf,but in this part Beowulf dies. Personally, Michael Morpurgo is one of my favourite characters.
