Looking Ahead - The Bane Chronicles and Tales from the Shadowhunter Academy

Fans of the Mortal Instruments and the Infernal Devices will be delighted to hear that the print bind up of ten Bane Chronicles novellas will be available on November 11, 2014.

I am a huge fan of both the Mortal Instruments and the Infernal Devices and Magnus is one of my favorite characters in Clare's books. So, it's not surprising that I am ecstatic about this bind up. The novellas were first available online. Clare released a novella e-book each month starting in April 2013. However, I believe there was a gap between the ninth and tenth novellas.

Speaking about novellas, Cassandra Clare mentioned yesterday that she partnered up with Sarah Rees Brennan, Robin Wasserman and Maureen Johnson to create the Tales from the Shadowhunter Academy series. This series will revolve around Simon Lewis from the Mortal Instruments.

Beginning February 2015, a new novella will be available each month where e-books are sold. There will be a bind up of all the novellas in print form just like what they did for the Bane Chronicles which is exciting!

According to Entertainment Weekly, this is the current line up for the Shadowhunter Academy series:
