Titles in This Set The Sword of Summer The Hammer of Thor For Magnus Chase: Hotel Valhalla Guide to the Norse Worlds Condition : Brand New Format : Hardback ISBN : 9780678453827 Publisher : Disney Hyperion Age Range : Ages 8-12 Overview Step into the Nine Worlds of Norse mythology with this deluxe hardback collection from Rick Riordan, the bestselling author behind Percy Jackson. Following homeless teen Magnus Chase from Boston to Hotel Valhalla, this three-book set combines two adventure novels with a hilarious companion guide to the gods and creatures of Asgard. Packed with humour and action, it's the perfect gift for fans of myth-fuelled fantasy. About the Books The Sword of Summer introduces Magnus Chase, a sixteen-year-old orphan who has survived alone on the streets of Boston for two years. When his estranged Uncle Randolph tracks him down with an impossible secret — that Magnus is the son of a Norse god — his life changes forever, and not for long: on the very first day, Magnus is killed defending the city from a fire giant, waking up as an einherji in the Hotel Valhalla. He must now race across the Nine Worlds to stop the return of the wolf Fenris and prevent an early Ragnarok. The Hammer of Thor picks up the action as Thor's mighty hammer, Mjolnir, goes missing yet again — only this time it has fallen into enemy hands. With the mortal worlds defenceless without it, Magnus and his friends must strike a desperate bargain with the gods' oldest enemy, Loki, whose price is dangerously high. For Magnus Chase: Hotel Valhalla Guide to the Norse Worlds is the essential companion for any newly arrived einherji. Commissioned by the hotel's world-weary manager, Helgi, this witty "who's who" profiles the gods, goddesses, and legendary beings of Norse myth — so readers never confuse a dwarf with an elf again.
