Qui a p de Beowulf ?

The book's playful take on classic mythology is so clever—I'm curious what sparked the author's comedic reinterpretation of this epic tale.

The humor really lightened what could have been a serious retelling, but I wonder if others felt it also made the myth more accessible or if it undermined the epic feel.

Balancing parody with respect for the source material must be tricky—wondering what influenced those creative choices.
