This exhilarating graphic-novel edition of an ancient classic honors the spirit of the original as it attracts modern readers.
The epic tale of the great warrior Beowulf has thrilled readers through the ages — and now it is reinvented for a new generation with Gareth Hinds's masterful illustrations. Grendel's black blood runs thick as Beowulf defeats the monster and his hideous mother, while somber hues overcast the hero's final, fatal battle against a raging dragon. Speeches filled with courage and sadness, lightning-paced contests of muscle and will, and funeral boats burning on the fjords are all rendered in glorious and gruesome detail. Told for more than a thousand years, Beowulf's heroic saga finds a true home in this graphic-novel edition.

Beowulf
When I initially read this it was the first graphic version of the epic tale that I had read. Mostly visual, with little words to help us, it seemed to be a great adjunct to the teaching/reading of the story we read in British Literature classes. Colorful, poetic.
Now that I have seen Santiago Garcia and David Rubin's version, which gets at more of Beowulf's story and captures more of the drama and power, I am inclined to say this is still good artwork, and maybe still the best I have seen of Hinds's classics adaptations, but not as effective as this newer (2016) Beowulf.
