One of the most successful and well known authors, Rick Riordan, is now coming out with a new series. Following his usual fashion of making mythology of different cultures well known, Rick Riordan is making a new series on Norse mythology. The Magnus Chase series will be hitting shelves on October 6th, 2015 with their first book called The Sword of Summer.
Magnus has always been a homeless, troubled kid on the streets of Boston. But when on his sixteenth birthday he talks to a strange and dangerous man he learned the truth. His father was a Norse god. Now Magnus has to journey through the Nine Worlds to find a special weapon that has been lost for thousands of years. With trolls, giants, and worst monsters on his tail. But when Boston is attacked by fire giants Magnus must make a big decision, save himself, or thousands of innocent lives. What would you choose?
This 640 page book will sure be a page turner. But make sure you get your copy at most stores, or be the first to recommend it in our school or Schlow library.
