Review
This was spectacular! I knew it was a spin-off of the Nico Brave series, but I struggled to connect with those stories. But I clicked with Eowulf immediately in this. I loved this nuanced friendship story with fun fantasy elements. The artwork is great, and the story was captivating. I hope Eowulf will have more adventures in the future – I will absolutely be watching for more!
