Magnus Chase And The Sword of Summer (Book 1)

My name is Magnus Chase. Im orphaned and living rough on the streets of Boston. And things are about to get much worse. My day started out normally enough. I was sleeping under a bridge when some guy kicked me awake and said Theyre after you. Next thing I know Im reunited with my obnoxious uncle who casually informs me that my long-lost father is a Norse god. Nothing normal about that. And it turns out the gods of Asgard are preparing for war. Apparently if I cant find the sword my father lost two thousand years ago there will be doom. Doomsday to be precise. A fire giant attacking the city? Immortal warriors hacking each other to pieces? Unkillable wolves with glowing eyes? Its all coming up.But first Im going to die. This is the story of how my life goes downhill from there!
