| General note |
The first book in the incredible new series from the author of Percy Jackson, the Kane Chronicles and Heroes of Olympus.<br/><br/>My name is Magnus Chase. I'm orphaned and living rough on the streets of Boston. And things are about to get much worse.<br/><br/>My day started out normally enough. I was sleeping under a bridge when some guy kicked me awake and said, 'They're after you.' Next thing I know, I'm reunited with my obnoxious uncle, who casually informs me that my long-lost father is a Norse god.<br/><br/>Nothing normal about that. And it turns out the gods of Asgard are preparing for war. Apparently, if I can't find the sword my father lost two thousand years ago, there will be doom. Doomsday, to be precise.<br/><br/>A fire giant attacking the city?<br/><br/>Immortal warriors hacking each other to pieces?<br/><br/>Unkillable wolves with glowing eyes?<br/><br/>It's all coming up.<br/><br/>But first I'm going to die. This is the story of how my life goes downhill from there...<br/><br/>Biography<br/>Rick Riordan is the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Percy Jackson and the Olympians series for children and the multi-award-winning Tres Navarre mystery series for adults.<br/><br/>For fifteen years, Rick taught English and history at public and private middle schools in the San Francisco Bay Area and in Texas. In 2002, Saint Mary's Hall honored him with the school's first Master Teacher Award.<br/><br/>His adult fiction has won the top three national awards in the mystery genre -- the Edgar, the Anthony and the Shamus. His short fiction has appeared in Mary Higgins Clark Mystery Magazine and Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine.<br/><br/>His Percy Jackson series features a twelve-year-old dyslexic boy who discovers he is the modern-day son of a Greek god. The Lightning Thief was a New York Times Notable Book for 2005. Film rights have been purchased by Twentieth Century Fox and a feature film is in development.
