The Ship of the Dead

Author: Rick Riordan

Magnus Chase’s final quest looms, a perilous journey to stop Loki from sailing his doomsday ship. With his einherji friends, he must navigate treacherous waters and face fearsome foes. As they race against time, Magnus grapples with his growing powers and the weight of his destiny. Riordan’s signature humor lightens the tension, but the stakes have never been higher. Will Magnus find the strength to save the Nine Worlds, or will Ragnarok consume all?

Sometimes small things can become very large, indeed.
