This exhilarating graphic-novel edition of an ancient classic honors the spirit of the original as it attracts modern readers (ages 10 and up). 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.Binding Type: PaperbackAuthor: Gareth HindsPublisher: Candlewick Press (MA)Published: 03/13/2007ISBN: 9780763630232Pages: 128Weight: 0.94lbsSize: 10.43h x 6.79w x 0.42dReview Citations: School Library Journal 05/01/2007 pg. 171Voice of Youth Advocates 06/01/2007 pg. 162 - Recommended - Better Than MostKliatt 05/01/2007 pg. 32Bulletin of Ctr for Child Bks 07/01/2007 pg. 470 - RecommendedLibrary Journal 03/15/2008 pg. 53
