Beowulf: Curse of the Dreygurs

By Gordon Brewer

Dreygurs rampage across the kingdom of Bernicia, feasting upon the inhabitants and threatening the power of King Ida. In response, the old man decides to risk the life of an upstart champion whose exploits as a monster hunter fill the mead halls around the North Sea.

Beowulf is a young leader on the rise in his homeland of Geat. The brash leader receives an offer to rid the lands of the undead monsters and impulsively accepts. Like any restless warrior of seventeen, the Geat champion hurries to the ravaged kingdom where myths and magic are real.

In his quest to destroy the deadly monsters, the future hero learns pride and foolish bravado can be as lethal as the magical terrors they face. Suffering setbacks and inner turmoil, Beowulf discovers a malevolent sorceress and her underworld allies could put an end to his destiny of becoming the world's greatest Monster Slayer.

Gordon Brewer is the pseudonym for a professional geek, history buff, and full time dad who took up a challenge from his son to finish his first novel and enter the world of writing. Raised on a farm in Kansas, the author spent nearly 5 years in the US Navy traveling to 12 different countries during this time. After his discharge, he received his BS degree with double majors in History and Political Science. Over the next 20 years, Gordon focused on the business and IT world. His experiences left him with a need to explore wide ranging interests in multiple genres, each with historical consideration given to the characters and settings. Residing in Tennessee, he often uses his family and friends as unfortunate guinea pigs where they are forced to listen to his tales, no matter how poorly conceived they may be.
