Description In Pursuance Of Books The Sword of Summer (Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard #1)
Magnus Chase has seen his share of trouble. Ever since that terrible night two years ago when his mother told him to run, he has lived alone on the streets of Boston, surviving by his wits, staying one step ahead of the police and the truant officers.One day, Magnus learns that someone else is trying to track him down—his uncle Randolph, a man his mother had always warned him about. When Magnus tries to outmaneuver his uncle, he falls right into his clutches. Randolph starts rambling about Norse history and Magnus's birthright: a weapon that has been lost for thousands of years.
The more Randolph talks, the more puzzle pieces fall into place. Stories about the gods of Asgard, wolves, and Doomsday bubble up from Magnus's memory. But he doesn't have time to consider it all before a fire giant attacks the city, forcing him to choose between his own safety and the lives of hundreds of innocents. . . .
Sometimes, the only way to start a new life is to die.

2 1/2 stars.Middle grade it may be, but I really enjoyed The Lightning Thief. I thought it was creative, fast-paced, entertaining and with a great message for all kids who feel a little on the outside sometimes. As with Harry Potter, it takes a normal, seemingly unremarkable kid and propels him into a world where he's a hero. And it's just fun!The Sword of Summer, though, doesn't feel... like anything new. Some people will shriek "No!" at this, but I really think it's time for Mr Riordan to movei'm obsessed. full video book review to come!
Really really enjoyed this one! I'm finding the Norse Mythology (which I've never really learned about) FACINATING plus it's full of great diverse characters! Here's my full booktalk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wrd1-... ! Let's discuss together!
[4.5 Stars]
This is the first book in Riordan's Norse series (though you'll meet a few old friends from the Percy Jackson series along the way). The third and last book in this trilogy, The Ship of the Dead, has just been published. Full review, originally published on www.fantasyliterature.com: Rick Riordan, who has enthralled millions of readers with exciting tales of teenagers and their interactions with Greek, Roman and Egyptian gods and goddesses, turns to Norse mythology in his latest book, The Sword
That was HILARIOUS. Like incredibly, marvellously FUNNY. I mean, it's Rick Riordan, right?! So you expect that...but I think this is one of his most goldenest books for humour ever (although granted I haven't read The Kane Chronicles yet, so we'll see how they match up!). Basically I'm endlessly pleased with this hilarious novel of Magnus Chase. It felt different from Percy Jackson, but still had the same vibe and hilarity (!!) and also ANNABETH HAS A CAMEO. Magnus Chase is Annabeth's cousin.
I gave up at the point where the homeless kids shot some giant fire destruction daemon type thing with a plastic cupid bow and arrow. I mean, seriously? That actually happened? That ruined it for me. Im all up for humour in books, but when the humour seeps into what I consider a serious situation of life and death, it becomes a little bit too stupid. It just didnt feel real. Bare with me a moment here. There is a giant fire daemon that has emerged in an otherwise normal world, theres nothing
