Magnus Chase, a once-homeless teen, is a resident of the Hotel Valhalla and one of Odin's chosen warriors. As the son of Frey, the god of summer, fertility, and health, Magnus isn't naturally inclined to fighting. But he has strong and steadfast friends, including Hearthstone the elf, Blitzen the dwarf, and Samirah the Valkyrie, and together they have achieved brave deeds, such as defeating Fenris Wolf and battling giants for Thor's hammer, Mjolnir. Now Magnus faces his most dangerous trial yet.
Loki is free from his chains. He's readying Naglfar, the Ship of the Dead, complete with a host of giants and zombies, to sail against the Asgardian gods and begin the final battle of Ragnarok. It's up to Magnus and his friends to stop him, but to do so they will have to sail across the oceans of Midgard, Jotunheim, and Niflheim in a desperate race to reach Naglfar before it's ready to sail. Along the way, they will face angry sea gods, hostile giants, and an evil fire-breathing dragon. But Magnus's biggest challenge will be facing his own inner demons. Does he have what it takes to outwit the wily trickster god?

      You wouldn't necessarily think that a desperate and dangerous quest to prevent Ragnarok, the great battle at the end of the world, would be funny--but there are plenty of laugh-out-loud moments in this third Magnus Chase audiobook. As Magnus, narrator Michael Crouch hits that tone just right. He also gives distinct voices to the diverse cast of characters, including Magnus's compatriots, his talking sword, and all the Norse gods and giants they encounter. One of the most effective things Crouch does is change his pacing to indicate when characters are communicating in sign language, ensuring that the listener is never confused. Crouch is the third narrator to tackle this appealing Stonewall Award-winning series, and if it continues, one hopes that Crouch will return to the helm. J.M.D. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine
