Wait a second...he's a demigod?! I don't have that much knowledge when it comes to the Norse myths but correct me if I'm wrong, there weren't any demigods in their mythology?

This actually kind of annoys me cause he could have kept Magnus a mortal just like the Kane siblings but noooo, super special snowflake had to have a god for a father. Also, the description kind of doesn't make sense based on what Annabeth said about her family in BoO. She stated that she had an uncle and a cousin in Boston, leading us to believe that said uncle was the father of said cousin. I mean his name is Chase so was he adopted? Yet Annabeth didn't mention any aunt, although the only logical conclusion is that either:

a) Her dad has an brother AND a sister, his sister died and his bro adopted her son?

b) Annabeth has no idea what she's talking about and said uncle is/was actually an aunt?

We shouldn't probably think too much of it for now? I mean, RR didn't even write the book yet, maybe the description is just very off. Still, so far, it doesn't appeal to me in the slightest. I think this series will be even less popular than the KC.
