Overview
Step into the frost-bitten realms of Norse mythology with the Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard series by Rick Riordan, collected in one complete four-book paperback set. Homeless teen Magnus Chase discovers he is the son of a Norse god and finds himself racing to prevent Ragnarok, the end of the world. Packed with humor, heart-pounding action, and Riordan's blend of ancient legend and modern wit, this collection follows Magnus and his crew of friends across the Nine Worlds. A brilliant introduction to Norse gods and giants for middle grade readers who love epic quests.

About the Books
The Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard series takes readers on a sprawling journey through Norse mythology, reimagined for a modern audience with Rick Riordan's trademark humor and heart. Magnus Chase begins the story as a homeless sixteen-year-old living on the streets of Boston, until he learns his father was Frey, the Norse god of summer, fertility, and prosperity. After a fatal encounter with a fire giant, Magnus wakes up in Valhalla, the hall of heroes destined to fight at Ragnarok, and discovers he must retrieve a legendary sword before chaos consumes the Nine Worlds. Across the trilogy, Magnus teams up with a wonderfully diverse cast, including Samirah al-Abbas, a Valkyrie and devout Muslim; Hearthstone, a deaf elf skilled in ancient runes; and Blitzen, a fashion-conscious dwarf, as they battle frost giants, outwit trickster gods like Loki, and race across realms from Asgard to Jotunheim. The final companion volume, 9 From the Nine Worlds, expands the universe further with a collection of short in-world reports written from the perspective of each of the Nine Worlds, adding rich lore and worldbuilding detail for devoted fans. Together, these four books combine mythology, comedy, and found-family themes into a fast-paced saga that has become a favorite entry point into Norse legend for young readers, echoing the success of Riordan's Percy Jackson series while carving out its own distinct mythological universe filled with humor, heart, and high-stakes heroism.
