Book Reviews of Beowulf: A New Telling

Book Review: 2 Stars

I hate to say this about a classic, but--I found this book incredibly boring.

Book Review: beowulf- FIRST BOOK in the ENGLISH LANGUAGE
Summary: 5 Stars

I am reading this book in my ...english class. This book has everything there is for a book to become a great book. This is probally one of the best books I have ever read.Some of the names are hard to pronounce, like Schyld Scheffing,but it becomes easier to read as the book goes on. My class and I have all enjoyed this book very much.I would recomend this book to anyone and everyone.

Book Review: creative action all over
Summary: 4 Stars

this book is almost all actoin about a man who is a very strong and kind warrior. he knows that the goodness inside of him can defeat any evil. he uses that knowlage to kill monsters. The book is a little confusing at times, but everything elese is very creative and understandable. I would sugjest this book to 11 year old and up for the concern of some grusome scense. it is only 94 pages, a good lengh for a bed-side book. by the way-beowulf is the guy on the horse not the monster on the cover :)

Book Review: something not boring...
Summary: 5 Stars

I recently purchased Beowulf: A New Telling by Robert Nye to read with my ninth grade special education students. They thoroughly enjoyed it and were able to dive into the symbolism used in the tale. I know it was a success because they have all ready made plans to go see the movie when it opens!!
