Description
This epic poem tells the story of Beowulf, a courageous hero who fearlessly offers to defend a hall and its people against a monster. With his bare hands, he defeats Grendel, but soon faces another ferocious foe - Grendel's mother.
After defeating these monsters, Beowulf becomes King of the Geats and must once again face a new challenge: a clever and vicious dragon that threatens to destroy everything he holds dear. This thrilling tale explores the eponymous hero's battle against monsters and his pursuit of courage and valour.
