Don't worry Izzy i'm the same as you. I haven't heard anything besides the Annabeth and Magnus being related part.
I'm soooooo stoked for Magnus chase!! I love Noris mythology. And chase as in annabeth chase! There's a connection there. Do you think it's her step-bothers?
Sameeeee!!!!!!! Soo exciteddd!!!!!!
Magnus Chase has always been a troubled kid. Since his mother’s mysterious death, he’s lived alone on the streets of Boston, surviving by his wits, keeping one step ahead of the police and the truant officers.
One day, he’s tracked down by a man he’s never met—a man his mother claimed was dangerous. The man tells him an impossible secret: Magnus is the son of a Norse god.
The Viking myths are true. The gods of Asgard are preparing for war. Trolls, giants and worse monsters are stirring for doomsday. To prevent Ragnarok, Magnus must search the Nine Worlds for a weapon that has been lost for thousands of years.
When an attack by fire giants forces him to choose between his own safety and the lives of hundreds of innocents, Magnus makes a fatal decision.
Sometimes, the only way to start a new life is to die . . .
Take a guess.
If Magnus does die, I think that he'll come back to life. I think that for two reasons. A) Rick likes doing that, B) It's the first book in a trilogy called 'Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard', so he has to be involved in the other books.

i wish i could
I read the sample in the back of The Blood of Olympus ebook. It had someone named Annabeth and a sandy haired guy (possibly Luke).
Norse mythology is often a LOT more bloody and violent compared to the already bloody and violent mythologies of the world, so Magnus dying wouldn't mean he'd never return to the world. Seeing Magnus on the cover, I originally thought maybe he'd be Thor's attractive rogue son because of his blonde locks, but now after reading the except, and, the fact that he has a cousin who's Athena's daughter, he's probably Loki's. Loki is a trickster God who is a master who illusions and trickery, (and women in the Marvel world… ;D) so that would make more sense with him being Annabeth's cousin and all. I'm SO excited, seeing Rick's take on the Norse gods, especially when there's the Marvel take on them already out, (I'm expecting there to be a whole lot of Chris Hemsworth/Tom Hiddleston references in this book) Rick, I'm sure you've done it again!

Plus, Norse mythology is one of the best kinds to go off of for this kind of series. Everyone's talking about the end of Summer and I'm sitting here like When's Magnus Chase coming out ;D?
