The first complete novelization of the epic poem Beowulf, R. Scot Johns' debut heroic
fantasy novel
"The Saga of Beowulf" chronicles the rise of the emerging Nordic
nations, the tragic feuding of their clans, epic battles with mythological creatures, and
the final, futile struggle of one man against the will of Fate that made of him a Legend.
Follow the young Norse hero Beowulf as he embarks upon a fateful quest for
vengeance against the creature that slew his father, setting in motion a sequence of
events that unleash a living nightmare. Based on history and myth, the epic saga
ranges from the frozen fields of Sweden and fetid fens of Denmark to the sprawling
battlefields of ancient France, as one man strives to prevent the downfall of a
nation, all the while fleeing from the woman he has sworn to love.
"Action packed and true to the
heroic fantasy genre. I was
amazed."
