Monster Slayer: A Beowulf Tale, written by Brian Patten and illustrated by Chris Riddell, is a wonderfully horrible retelling of the classic tale of Anglo Saxon hero, Beowulf, and the gruesome monsters he defeats. When Grendel attacks the village, it seems like there is nothing the people can do to stop him. Then, one day, the mighty warrior Beowulf arrives from across the sea to save the day.
