Magnus... Chase. Rick. What are you doing Rick? Are you kidding me?

Caleb Reese It is her cousin, because in the Blood of Olympus Annabeth said that she had an uncle and cousin from Boston that she wished she knew better, and their last name just happened to be Chase. I would personally be shocked if this wasn't foreshadowing for this next series. Fingers crossed that they somehow come together a little bit, and even if Annabeth is not in it, we get to hear more about her and Percy, and the rest of the 7.
JPR™ Read The Blood of Olympus.
I'm 99% sure that he's Annabeth's cousin from Boston.

In BoO, Annabeth mentions a cousin in Boston. That is their relationship.
Before BoO even came out, he confirmed a Norse series taking place in Boston, but now we know that the main character is related to Annabeth- though possibly not though blood...
Still, the Chase family now has at least two powerful demigods in it, of different pantheons... Remind me to never mess with someone with the last name Chase!
Natalie Okay, yeah, Chase. woah what is happening? I mean, will we see Annabeth? possibly Percy with her cuz that'd be great :)
Ryan Caleb Reese, i had the same theory! ergh I’m dying for it to come out!!! post-book depression is real man, it’s a struggle
PERCY OMG I LIKE THE CROSSOVER SERIES IF IT COMES AND I CANT WAIT TO SEE PERCY AND ANNABETH RETURN AFTER HOF SERIES
Maria best guess: remember those two little half-brothers of Annabeth? Her fathers wife has two sons.Maybe, one of them is named Magnus...
Brock Ulland the only thing is that in Blood of Olympus it says Annabeth has a cousin and an UNCLE in Boston. The description talks about Magnus and his MOTHER. But hey, I want Magnus to be a relative of Annabeth just as much as you do. Hopefully the still are.
Kirti I think he is some relative of hers. At first, I thought that he is on of her step brothers, but that's not possible as they have no godly parent. So, he maybe her cousin or some distant relative... maybe?
But, still! This means a book full of Rickyhangers and Riction!
lem◍nade He's obviously a relative of hers (a cousin). You think Rick just forgot the name of one of his most famous characters?
Marissa (or Cordelia) Squires In Blood of Olympus Annabeth goes to see her cousin in Boston. "Totally not foreshadowing for a new series. "

Gwyneth Will Percy be in the book? (I really hope so!!)
Jennah Neale Yep, hes Annabeths cousin!

Dodos&ducks !! I know. Magnus Chase (Annabeth chase) (Magnus and the Kane chronicles is to similar to Magnus Bane from the shadow hunter chronicles )
Maggie ANNABETH AND MAGNUS ARE COUSINS DUUUH DONT U READ THE QUESTIONS THAT RICK ANSWERS?!?!
Julita Stein Yeah, I know I hope it comes through the library!!
#saclib

or I could just....buy it, maybe!
Suzy Cousin. For sure. Son of a Norse God
Kitty Tran I think Rick Riordan did classify that he's Annabeth's cousin from Boston on his Facebook page *_*
Murple14 I didn't catch that little bit but I'm glad the rest of you have seen to have. When I read: 'His mother's mysterious death...' I started freaking out a little bit, thinking that he was her son. Now I'm eased.
Jessica He's her cousin; in the first chapter preview from The Crown of Ptolemy, it has Annabeth and her dad looking for him in Boston.
Khadijah Wait, if Magnus is supposed to be Annabeth's cousin then wouldn't that mean that her Dad's brother has to be a Norse God... which seems kinda unlikely.
Writingwriterwhoreads In an interview he confirmed he was related to Annabeth! :D

Angela I read on wikipedia that he's Annabeth's cousin.
Ren ...hasn't it been confirmed that Norse series will take place in Boston...like I swear to Buddha that I read somewhere that it would take place in Boston before I even read BoO
Alicia Grace I THINK I KNOW!!!!!!- I think it could be Annabeth's Cousin, because in one of the books she discusses about how one of her cousin lives with his uncles. So I think it is her cousin
McKenzie Staley i didn't even notice his last name until i saw your question he could end up being Annabeth's brother but i don't think Percy and Annabeth well be a mane part of this series as they are in percy jackson series and heroes of Olympus but we never know i guess.
