I read this for an English class. Overall it was interesting, though I always enjoy something a little less if I'm reading it for school, which is why I'm not rating it. I liked this translation and that it had the Old English to compare it to. I think there's definitely a lot in here to discuss in an academic setting, so it served it's purpose for me.
