Magnus Bane may or may not be dating Alec Lightwood, but he definitely needs to find him the perfect birthday present. One of ten adventures in The Bane Chronicles. Set in the time between City of Ashes and City of Glass, warlock Magnus Bane is determined to find the best birthday present possible for Alec Lightwood, the Shadowhunter he may or may not be dating. And he’s also got to deal with the demon he’s conjured up for a very irritating client… This standalone e-only short story illuminates the life of the enigmatic Magnus Bane, whose alluring personality populates the pages of the #1 New York Times bestselling series The Mortal Instruments and The Infernal Devices. This story in The Bane Chronicles, What to Buy the Shadowhunter Who Has Everything (And Who You’re Not Officially Dating Anyway), is written by Cassandra Clare and Sarah Rees Brennan.
WrensReads Review:
We get some love from Alec, YAY!
I like this story because you see a nicer side of Isabelle…and of Alec. You actually see that they are human and not just warriors like they want you to think.
Magnus is so cute and in love. You haven’t seen him like this with his past relationships you see him with in this series.
