Here is what people are saying about the Beowulf: A New Verse Translation
1 Star Rating  "Do Not Buy Kindle Edition"2009-09-30
- Reviewed By User: APN6WN0WBLJUR
I have the physical book edition of this wonderful work, and wanted to have it also with me on Kindle. However, without any indication at all, the Kindle edition is abridged. It is only the modern English translation and does NOT include the Anglo-Saxon text.

Amazon nis selling you half a book on Kindle, not the entire book. This is very deceptive and one wonders how many other Kindle books have been butchered by Amazon.
 
5 Star Rating  "Great combination of eloquent English and Excellent translation."2009-09-29
- Reviewed By lomertamahon
What is remarkable in this Poem, which, in accord with English lore circa 8th Century, intends to narrate true events with stylish language, is what it narrates. Scholars note that Grendel's description causes difficulty unless one concedes dinosaurs or "dragons" were contemporaries with man at the time. According to this translation "the other, warped in the shape of a man, moves beyond the pale bigger than any man, an unnatural birth called Grendel by the country people in former days" and "Every nail, claw-scale and spur, every spike
and welt on the hand of that heathen brute was like barbed steel. Everybody said there was no honed iron hard enough to pierce him through, no time proofed blade
that could cut his brutal blood caked claw." The tiny arms are described as covered with scales and as like a serpent. The head is described as large and requiring four men to carry it. It is vaguely human in shape since it is bipedal and Peter Dickenson describes it as a bipedal dragon or dinosaur. Dickinson, Peter. The Flight of Dragons ch.10 "Beowulf" New English Library, 1979. Because of the myth of evolution, readers have been "blinded" and unable to see Grendel for what it is, a T-Rex. More evidence that dragons or "dinosaurs" coexisted with mankind recently and may still exist in remote parts of the world but for the extinction by men who encountered them as a menace to man and mammal and alike.

Got this book for my son's AIM's class. It is easy to understand and a good read.
 
4 Star Rating  "Heaney's translation of Beowulf--Old English not included"2009-08-09
- Reviewed By User: A2ODHQ6DUWATER
The translation is beautiful, and the poem epic. The one thing holding me back from giving it five stars is that the Kindle version does not include the Old English like the print version of the book does.
