See all formats and editions

This is the story of a young man who travelled far across the sea to fight two terrifying monsters - one who could rip a man apart and drink his blood, the other who lived like a sea-wolf at the bottom of a dark, blood-stained lake.

His name was Beowulf, and his story was written down in Anglo-Saxon in the eighth century.

Kevin Crossley-Holland retells the story for children in strong, rhythmical prose, with striking illustrations by Charles Keeping.

The paperback edition is now reissued with a new cover.
