Magnus Chase and the Hammer of Thor (Book 2)

My name is Magnus Chase. Two months ago I died fighting a Fire Giant and woke up in Hotel Valhalla as one of Odin's warriors. Time for a rest? I wish.

When I meet Otis, an informant with a lead on Thor's missing hammer, all I get is the name 'Provincetown' before a wolf-masked assassin takes him out and warns me to stay away.

Someone really doesn't want me to find the hammer, and even if I could it's rumoured to be underground, guarded by powerful magic.

But the giant armies are on the move, preparing to invade. If I don't find it, they'll ravage the Nine Worlds, starting with the streets of Boston.

There's just one person who could help. Someone who demands a very high price- the gods' worst enemy, Loki.

Rick Riordan is a teacher and a writer, and has won many awards for his mystery novels for adults. He says that the idea for Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief first came to him while he was teaching Greek mythology at middle school in San Francisco. But rumour has it that Camp Half Blood actually exists, and Rick spends his summers there recording the adventures of young demigods. Some believe that, to avoid a mass panic among the mortal population, he was forced to swear on the River Styx to present Percy Jackson's story as fiction. Rick lives in Texas (apart from his summers on Half Blood Hill) with his wife and two sons.
