Beowulf the Bane of Monsters is not a book like any other. It is a portal that opens onto the mythical world of Scandinavian sagas, populated by monsters and heroes. You will be transported to Heorot, the great golden hall of King Hrothgar, to embark on a captivating adventure in which you will be the protagonist.
In addition to the book, you will need two dice (or a pack of regular cards), a pencil and an eraser. Using these tools and a few simple rules, you can take on the role of the first superhero of traditional English literature - Beowulf the Bane of Monsters! - in an inventive adaptation of this Anglo-Saxon epic.
You will decide which route to take, which perils to face and which creatures to fight or avoid. Whether you survive your quest, whether you are elevated to the rank of hero whose exploits are sung, whether you are even crowned king or whether you succumb to the hands of the bloodthirsty Grendel or his mother the ogress, all this will only be the consequence of your personal choices. Thanks to a bonus quest, you may dare to play as the most infamous monster himself: Grendel!
A story of heroes... a tale of monsters... a legend that revives!
