Without even trying, Beowulf finds himself working for (and against) the French Army, The Church, The Pope, The Britons and the Evil Duke of Jutland (who may just be his Father.) Someone is going to end up King, but which of the Louis, will it be, and how will our hero without a moral compass decide?Throw in a deadly assassin, a mysterious messenger, high stakes poker, spit roasted chicken, a perilous chase in ‘fast’ donkey carts, true love and a philosophical approach to imminent dismemberment and you are ready for the next instalment!
