by Bill Willingham
It's not easy being immortal. Mighty Beowulf, world famous hero of old, is down on his luck, living in a dive, deep in the bad part of
Coventry. He's been out of work since his private hero's license was revoked. Then fate comes calling in the person of a lovely young woman named Janet Garrow. She works for a private organization called the Saint George Group, dedicated to the difficult and dangerous task of hunting down the world's deadliest monsters. She wants Beowulf to reenter the heroing trade by joining them. It seems that the entire population of a small Montana town has decided to commit suicide - all in the same night - and its up to Beowulf and Miss Garrow to find out why. But before he even has a chance to solve that mystery, Beowulf has to survive his appointment with the Monster Maker! Bill Willingham makes the classic character a pulp hero for the new millennium in this new series of fantasy adventure novels. Willingham first used the licensed professional hero,
Beowulf, in the short- lived
Coventry series. The
Beowulf books are a series of short novels, with
Hyde & Seek coming soon!
