Beowulf: An EverStory YA Retelling (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798259306820)

In a great hall in Denmark, joy has turned to terror. Night after night, the monster Grendel comes in the darkness, killing Hrothgar's warriors and leaving the kingdom helpless.

Then Beowulf arrives.

A mighty warrior from Geatland, Beowulf crosses the sea to face the evil that others cannot defeat. But courage alone is not enough. Each victory carries a cost, and each battle pulls him deeper into a world shaped by fate, honor, loyalty, and death.
What follows is one of the oldest and most important stories in English literature: a tale of monsters and kings, boasts and battles, treasure and ruin, and the long shadow of mortality over even the greatest heroes.

Beowulf is not just an adventure. It is a story about what makes a leader worth remembering, what glory can and cannot save, and why every act of heroism stands against time itself.

This edition of Beowulf is part of the EverStory Classics series, which retells great works of classic literature in a more modern, readable style while preserving the original story. These books are not drastic abridgments. They keep the same major characters, plot points, setting, and themes. The difference is the language: clearer, smoother, and easier to enter for modern readers.

Written at an accessible reading level, this edition is designed for readers who want the full story without having to wrestle constantly with older prose.

Perfect for:

• teens and adults who want an easier entry point into classic literature
• readers who enjoy heroes, monsters, and epic battles
• classrooms, homeschoolers, and independent learners
• anyone interested in the roots of fantasy and heroic adventure

Warning: This book contains monster attacks, uninvited dinner guests, dragons, extensive property damage, heroic overconfidence, and mayor mommy-issues
