Magnus even has his own Facebook Page

Magnus Bane

Magnus Bane is the High Warlock of Brooklyn. He was the warlock who signed the mind of Clary Fray after being asked to help erase her early memories by her mother. He first meets the other Shadowhunters at one of his Downworlder parties. He has Clary get him the Book of White, and agrees to help revive her mother with it. He is bisexual.

Appearance

Magnus is described as very tall and very thin, and at least partly Asian. He has black hair that is usually spiked and glittery. He wears all kinds of make-up, such as glitter around his eyes and lipstick. He likes to flaunt his sexuality by wearing rainbow leather pants and other flashy accessories. Isabelle once said he was a “sexy, sexy, warlock.” He is also described as having gold-green cat’s eyes, as well as no belly button.

Family

At a young age, Magnus’s parents hated him. When his mother found out what he was, she hung herself in a barn. His father was later driven into an attempt to drown him. In response, Magnus burned him where he stood.

I love Magnus, he adds so much to the series and gives us a little comic relief.  He is more than just a Warlock, he is an integral part of the Shadowhunter team, he heals them, protects them and even lets them crash at his house.  So share your thoughts on Magnus.

We thought we would share a few tweets.  Some may be spoilers, but if’ you’ve already read the books, you’ll be fine.

• “have yo ever played a rol playing game? I’m asking ‘cauze Simon was a rol player and i’m curious.” Nope. That was based on friends of mine.
• “when you came up with the idea for TMI, did you know how it was going to end, or has it since changed?”http://twishort.com/aalkl
• “do you get to choose the release dates of your books?” Definitely, definitely not.
• I think my mistrust of happy endings is well known. @barrygoldblatt
• “did you have to think about the plot for the series or did it just come to you.” Everyone has to think about plo…http://twishort.com/aaz8d
• “if you could give any advice to new wannabe authors, what would it be?” Write what you want to read. And learn how publishing works.
• “will you write a prequel about valentine and jocelyn and the circle?” Huh, several people just asked me that at once. Probably not, no.
• “Are we going to see Jace’s b-day in CoFA?” No. Also he is too old to want a spaghetti bath anymore.
• “Was the end of CoFA planned or just developed as the story was written?”Planned out. I did several outlines till I got the ending I wanted.

And there are many more. You can find her at @cassieclare

Cassandra has some extras posted on The Mortal Instruments website. We thought it would be fun to post some fan art!
Do you think this could be clary?

There are so many books that I’d like to read. I just wish I could read/listen all the time. But that doesn’t mean I don’t try.
Some of my favorite books are:

• Twilight <3
• Shiver
• The Mortal Instruments
• The Immortal
• Hunger Games
• Hush Hush
• Crush It! (not a YA paranormal romance)
• The Lovely Bones (also not a YA PR)

I have a list a mile long of books I want to read. Here are a few:

• Wolf Signs
• The Uglies Series
• The Dark Divine
• Beautiful Creatures
• Hex Hall

So what are the books you love and what do you want to read?  You too Shannon…
