Handy facts about other beings round out this go-to tome. You'll never see Ratatosk as a cute little rodent or confuse a dwarf with an elf ever again! Two thousand years ago, when the Romans came to arrest Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, the disciple Peter cut off the ear of an innocent man. Jesus rebuked Peter and quickly healed the servant's ear - and the Sword of Peter took on supernatural powers.
Fast forward to modern day where a Biblical archaeology quest for the Sword of Peter is imperative to both Israel and to the Christian world. It's also a race against others who would possess and use the Sword of Peter for their own purposes, if they find it first. In Summer Lee's second Biblical treasure hunt adventure, Achava, a guardian of sacred artifacts, has her Jewish heritage and her Christian faith.
Like Samson in the Bible, Achava is capable of exercising supernatural strength, as well as other unusual powers. When the gods kidnap Sam, Buzz and Mary must set off on a dangerous adventure to find a mysterious being known as the Keeper of the Myths. It also covers my feelings about assisted suicide, euthanasia I make no apologies or excuses, and am certainly not going to ask anyone to help me to jump under a train. I was born just after World War Two, and after serving my apprenticeship where I was trained as a carpenter and joiner, I launched myself onto the world stage, which was trying to drag itself into the twentieth century?
I was diagnosed as having multiple sclerosis over thirty five years ago and have battled through a fun packed and enjoyable life ever since. Now having had to retire after forty three years in an ever changing construction industry, through the problems caused mainly by my illness, and also falling off rooftops, I have just got to put it all into writing. People have asked me why I am writing books, and I must confess that my only reason appears to be that I need to.
I also stopped believing in fairies long ago, but, if I could derive some sort of an income from my efforts, that would be nice. I would also hope for people to see things through the eyes of a person with firsthand experience of some of the issues involved without the whole saga becoming some sort of black comedy, or yet another hand wringing exercise, which will only give the chatt.
Where everything you every knew or believed about your life was wrong. My name is Magnus Chase. I'm orphaned and living rough on the streets of Boston. And things are about to get much worse. My day started out normally enough.
I was sleeping under a bridge when some guy kicked me awake and said, 'They're after you. Nothing normal about that. And it turns out the gods of Asgard are preparing for war. Apparently, if I can't find the sword my father lost two thousand years ago, there will be doom.
Doomsday, to be precise. A fire giant attacking the city? Immortal warriors hacking each other to pieces? Unkillable wolves with glowing eyes? It's all coming up. But first I'm going to die. This is the story of how my life goes downhill from there Against impossible odds, the four demigods and magicians team up to prevent the apocalypse.
