	The SF Site Featured Review: Grendel
		From Grendel's view: "I understood that the world was nothing: a mechanical chaos of casual, brute enmity on which we stupidly impose our hopes and fears." He comes to this conclusion after, as a child, he becomes stuck upside down and hangs from the limbs of a large tree.
		Importantly, Grendel's death is due to an 'accident.' Grendel slips on the blood of one of his victims, and his fall allows Beowulf to wrestle Grendel to the ground (and rip off his arm).
		Grendel's confirmation comes in the preservation of the story of the hero, while the truth is that life is random and pointless.

		Grendel is a beautiful and heartbreaking modern retelling of the Beowulf epic from the point of view of the monster, Grendel, the villain of the 8th-century Anglo-Saxon epic.
		To Grendel, of course, the concepts are beyond him and the dragon becomes upset at Grendel's obvious boredom and disquiet.
		And killing is Grendel's forte: He repeatedly targets the thanes of Hrothgar, king of the Danes, who, as descendants of the blessed race of Abel, intrigue him; voyeuristically he spies on them in their meadhalls, sardonically observing their folly, believing that he provides for them a healthy challenge to their complacency.

		Grendel is trodden down with a foul scorn as is Oedipus and as is Cain in the Bible, for just as Cain was thrown out of Eden, his homeland, for slaying his brother, Able, Grendel is thrown out of the world he knows for killing his brother-species, humans.

	Grendel Summary & Essays - John Gardner
		A relatively minor character in Beowulf, Grendel is a symbol for "darkness, chaos, and death," according to critic John M. Howell in Understanding John Gardner.
		Similarly, Gardner builds up the role of Grendel's mother to emphasize, through her inarticulateness, the importance of language in the development of civilization.
		Gardner also creates a relationship between Grendel and the dragon (another minor character in the original epic) in order to expand the concept of nihilism—the belief that there is no purpose to existence.

	Alexander Arms 6.5mm Grendel AR-15 Rifle
		While the Grendel was designed for long range target work and hunting, the Remington was developed for anti-personnel use at ranges out to about 400 yards.
		For long range work, the Grendel’s case design has a decided advantage over the Remington when using long bullets of a high ballistic coefficient design, because both cartridges are limited in length by the size of the AR-15 magazine.
		In the accompanying photo, it is illustrated in the cutout cases that a 130 grain.270 (6.8mm) bullet with a similar ballistic coefficient to the 120 grain.264 (6.5mm) bullet intrudes greatly upon the case capacity of the Remington cartridge, effectively limiting the bullets used in that cartridge to the stubbier 115 grain class of bullets.
