"Magnus Chase has always been a troubled kid. Since his mother’s mysterious death, he’s lived alone on the streets of Boston, surviving by his wits, keeping one step ahead of the police and the truant officers.
One day, he’s tracked down by a man he’s never met—a man his mother claimed was dangerous. The man tells him an impossible secret: Magnus is the son of a Norse god.
The Viking myths are true. The gods of Asgard are preparing for war. Trolls, giants and worse monsters are stirring for doomsday. To prevent Ragnarok, Magnus must search the Nine Worlds for a weapon that has been lost for thousands of years.
When an attack by fire giants forces him to choose between his own safety and the lives of hundreds of innocents, Magnus makes a fatal decision.
Sometimes, the only way to start a new life is to die . . ."
The waiting has come to and end!
Finally, the Cover for Sword of Summer, the first book in the Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard by Rick Riordan has been revealed!
After writing the 'Percy Jackson', 'Heroes of Olympus' and the 'Kane Chronicles' series where he brought a new twist on greek, roman and egypt mythology his new book series focuses on norse mythology.
The Goodreads Synopsis sounds like it's going to be an kick-ass adventure with an new amazing protagonist and I can't wait for this book to come out on the 6th of October.
Also, the name Chase is not an unknown one in the Rick Riordan universe..
Lots of love
