Einzelposting: New Series based on Norse gods

The Norse gods are so wild. They have this wild, barbaric energy you don’t associate with the Greeks,” he said in an interview[...]

“There are so many fantastic stories and I want to bring Thor and Odin and the other gods into the modern world, just like I did with the Greeks and Percy Jackson,” Riordan said. “I’ll give the books an urban setting and have young people interacting with the Norse gods.”

A Norse series has long been rumored and the author has signed with Disney Publishing Worldwide, his current publisher, for at least three books. Riordan fans, known to remind and pester their parents for months about an upcoming release, will probably have to wait until 2015, the author said. So far, the Norse series is still in the outline phase, and he has “Heroes of Olympus” and “Kane Chronicle” books to write.
