Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard : Hammer of Thor - Rick Riordan

The Hammer of Thor - Rick Riordan

I did not find it as interesting as the first one (Sword of Summer) ... Some places it seemed like that the story was just dragging on... I felt that there was too much of details from the previous book of the series  which was the reason for the drag. The storyline didn't get me hooked. But still I want to read the next book of the series - Ship of the dead. Why????
(Spoiler Alert: Towards the end of the book, when Magnus is talking with Annabeth, she tells that its time for Magnus to meet Percy. ) Hence I'm waiting eagerly for the release of the next book in the series. In the mean time, I will jump of to read "Trials of Apollo"
