Book 1:The Sword Of Summer
At first, Magnus thinks he’s just another teenage boy living under the streets of Boston. But soon, his uncle comes in a car and says “we need hurry, they’re coming”. They go to a river and Magnus finds that he’s pulling a sword out of the river. Then, Surt (an evil god) wants the sword. Magnus has an epic duel and ends up falling off a bridge and dieing. Lucky for him, he died in combat and a Valkyrie takes him to a place called Hotel Valhalla, which is a place where you train for doomsday. But Magnus needs his sword before Surt can get it. He needs help from a Valkyrie and some of his homeless friends. Can he do it?
If you like the Percy Jackson series, then you will like the Magnus chase series. What I liked about this book is that there are 9 worlds, including Asgard, Vanaheim, Alfheim, Midgard, Jotunheim, Nidavellir, Niflheim, Muspelheim, and Helheim. My favorite part is when Magnus, Samirah, and Floor Nineteen are fighting Surt and his giants. This is the first book of three and it’s got me excited to read the rest of the series.
