Beowulf
My name is Judah. I enjoy playing soccer and baseball. In the winter, I enjoy Nordic and alpine skiing. When it comes to reading, adventure books are my favorite.
Beowulf is a thrilling fiction novel about tales and legends of the Middle Ages. Beowulf is both a strong, wise, and kingly hero. When Beowulf hear about troubles in England, he sailed over with his best men to rid the town of its monsters. Many a man had tried to kill the beast, but none could prevail. He always made a fair match between his enemies. If the monster did not use a sword, neither would he. Single handedly he saved the land from the two monsters that raided and struck fear into whoever they gazed upon killing wherever they please. The evil ogre Grendel and His wicked mother the sea-hag consistently terrorized Hrothgar’s kingdom by killing countless people each day. Sadly, he couldn’t save the country forever where he met his final match against the hoarding dragon.
This book has gore, love, heroes, and monsters and is a page turner to whoever should read it. Since Beowulf was a wise king, when all the fame was directed to him, he handled it smartly unlike others who would have let it get to their head and ruin them in the long run. I recommend this book for ages 12 and up if he or she loves action, love, and battle.
