The book i just finished is called Beowulf, the Graphic Novel. I really good enjoyed the book. It is about a warrior who is really strong and fights for his village. His village gets attacked by the monsters called grendals. The battles get very brutal.
Because the book is a graphic novel the illustrations were very cool and detailed. For example, in one of the battles it shows Beowulf ripping grendall's arm off. The scenery in the castle is detailed showing the ins an out's along with the light fixtures. It gives you a real sense of what things look liked during that time. Also, the armor and wardrobe was very detailed.
I'm still wondering how Beowulf had enough strength to rip of the grendals arm.
I was really suprised on how good this book was because when I first picked it up it didn't give me the best first impression. I have read a lot of graphic novels and my first reaction made me think it wouldn't be as good as the others.
