Bookroo's summary

Eowulf Wegmund, fresh from a summer of magical adventures, returns to her mundane New Jersey life. But when a supervillain emerges, she must team up with her irksome classmate, Amadeus Hornburg. Together, they face a hidden menace that could destroy their town. Can they unravel the secrets of a dark past before it's too late?

From the publisher

A Kirkus Best Book of the Year This action-packed graphic novel stars an unforgettable, iconic new heroine who has monster problems–and middle school problems!Eowulf Wegmund just had the most amazing summer ever! She traveled to a magical supply shop at the crossroads of all realities, rescued unicorn soldiers from a pocket dimension, and fought an evil god with the help of her new friend Nico Bravo. Pretty rad stuff, even if you are descended from the legendary monster hunter Beowulf! Now Eowulf finds herself back home in her boring New Jersey suburb, where the only monsters are the ones in her D&D game and the weirdest creature around is her middle school classmate Amadeus Hornburg–and he’s just an angry little jerk that nobody likes. But when a mysterious supervillain returns to wreak havoc on their quiet town, Eowulf and Amadeus must join forces to unearth a dark past that wants to stay buried.
