" The mixture of viking 'pagan' thought and early christianity is quite oddly banged together and creates some strange imagery. However, other than the predictions of doom for the Gaets, "Beowulf" is a tale that is rather monotonous (the animated film has a rather more modern twist to it, and is, to me, more interesting a tale) and for a contemporary reader not well structured.
