3/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Sep-24-2009; (no title); There are not many books where the author has a main character that you absolutely despise and yet feel quite sorry for, but "Grendel" is definitely one of those books. Set in Denmark thousands of years ago, "Grendel" tells the same...; read full review | report as inappropriate

5/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Jun-28-2009; ''Things Fade; Alternatives Exclude"; I think it's important to mention up front that 'Grendel' is not so much a re-telling of the Beowulf saga from the monster's point of view as it is a philosophical exploration into personal meaning.

5/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Jun-05-2009; It's a Bird! It's a Plane! It's a ... Furry Arm Nailed to the Wall!; I originally read "Beowulf" in high school and found it somewhat dry and very characteristic of the "epic poetry" label. (It is the only epic poem surviving in full, after all.) I was not much impressed with "Beowulf" but found that John...; read full review | report as inappropriate

4/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Apr-23-2009; Existentialism in Grendel; The tale of Grendel is much more than just a story about a monster.

2/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Oct-27-2008; Wish I had liked this one.; I was so excited when I saw this book at the library. I thought the concept of the story seen from Grendel's eyes was a fascinating one. But, I was unable to get into the story after 2 chapters. I'm not sure why, but the author was...; read full review | report as inappropriate
