A review by victorpineiro
The Last Shadow Warrior by Sam Subity

5.0

This book is an absolute gem. I was sold the minute I saw it. A well-reviewed retelling of Beowulf? Yes please. It was action-packed and impossible to put down, but what astounded me was how laugh-out-loud funny it was throughout. Sam's an extremely clever writer, and it makes the book completely irresistible. I also loved how much I learned about Viking culture. I thought I knew my stuff, but Sam taught me something new in every chapter! I highly recommend this both to kids and post-kids, and think it'd make a fantastic read-aloud book.
