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?Ages 10-14.

The courage to change : saying goodbye to good enough and embracing the promise of what can be / by Meyer, Joyce,1943-author.;
"We've all heard the saying, "The only constant is change." Sometimes the changes we face, both expected and unexpected, can make our lives feel ungrounded and unsteady. And when we react to change with fear, an opportunity for growth can turn into overwhelming anxiety that locks us into situations, relationships, and ways of thinking and being that prevent us from living in the fullness of who we truly are in Christ. Beloved Bible teacher and #1 New York Times bestselling author Joyce Meyer wants us to know that even when we feel like the ground beneath our feet is shifting, we can stand firm on the promise of God's Word that He will see us through. With her signature insight and timeless wisdom, Joyce shows us how to align our emotional reactions to changes with the truth of God's promise that He will work all changes for good in our lives, even the most painful and difficult ones. In The Courage to Change, you will learn how to: -Embrace change as a necessary part of growth -Replace a mindset of fear with a mindset of opportunity -And live fully within the uncertainty of change while maintaining peace. We will all face changes again and again throughout our lifetimes. We don't have to live dreading the challenges that these changes bring. We can equip ourselves to become people of bravery, optimism, and hope in an ever-changing world, because we have God's assurance that His character and His promises will never change. Become a change warrior and embrace the courage to change. The Courage to Change also contains study questions at the end of each chapter for individual or group reflection"--

Say you'll remember me / by Jimenez, Abby,author.;

That is until Xavier opens his mouth and proves that even sculpted gods can say the absolute wrong thing. Like, really wrong. Of course, there's nothing Samantha loves more than proving an asshole wrong ... unless, of course, he can admit he made a mistake. But after one incredible and seemingly endless date-possibly the best in living history-Samantha is forced to admit the truth, that her family is in crisis and any kind of relationship would be impossible. Samantha begs Xavier to forget her. To remember their night together as a perfect moment, as crushing as that may be. Only no amount of distance or time is nearly enough to forget that something between them. And the only thing better than one single perfect memory is to make a life-and even a love-worth remembering"--
