The Bane Chronicles

(The Bane Chronicles #1-10)

by Cassandra Clare, Maureen Johnson, Sarah Rees Brennan

November 11, 2014

528 pages

Goodreads  Amazon  Chapters

Goodreads Summary:

A Collection of Ten Short Stories centred around Magnus Bane. Each short story is going to be published as an ebook followed by a Full Single Print Coming 2014

Ever wondered about the enigmatic, mysterious warlock Magnus Bane? The only character to appear in every Shadowhunter book, Magnus has a past even more shrouded in mystery than his present. I’ve teamed up with acclaimed YA writers Maureen Johnson and Sarah Rees Brennan to create the Bane Chronicles, the back (and front) story of Magnus told in ten linked tales.

Look for short stories like Vampires, Scones and Edmund Herondale; The Rise and Fall of the Hotel Dumort; Saving Raphael Santiago and What To Buy The Shadowhunter Who Has Everything (And Who You’re Not Officially Dating Anyway). Each story will be available as an ebook on a monthly basis starting April 16 with the tale of What Happened In Peru.

Each story will be released monthly online for the next ten months — and then for those who don’t read e-books, the full print collection will be available in bookstores and wherever else books are sold after the Chronicles have been finished.

I don't think this one needs any explanation. I don't know anyone who loves Cassandra Clare's books that doesn't love Magnus Bane.

What are you guys waiting on this week?

TTT #8: Book Characters that would be Sitting at My Lunch Table

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme brought to you by The Broke and the Bookish where people share their top ten things according to the topic of that week.

I had so much fun picking out the characters for this topic! I went with characters that were more likely to actually sit at a lunch table and look kind of normal there. Here are my picks in no particular order :)

GALS:

1. Lola Nolan from Lola and the Boy Next Door - I would enjoy looking at her different outfits everyday.

2. Sophie Mercer from the Hex Hall trilogy - She would be a fun and quirky one to have around.
3. Rose Hathaway from the Vampire Academy series - She's so sassy the table will never get boring.
4. Hermione Granger from the Harry Potter series - I'd love to listen to her spew out facts.

GUYS:

5. Levi from Fangirl - He can lean and smile at me all he wants.
6. Étienne St. Clair from Anna and the French Kiss - He can use his charms on me anytime.
7. Josh Wasserstein from Isla and the Happily Ever After - He can draw me anytime.
8. Cas Lowood from Anna Dressed in Blood duology - He can scare the bullies away.
9. Wesley Ayers from The Archived series - He can put eyeliner on me anytime.

10. Magnus Bane from The Bane Chronicles - He can sprinkle glitters everywhere.

Which characters would you have sitting at your lunch table?
