"Set in the Shadowhunter world, The Red Scrolls of Magic follows Magnus Bane and Alec Lightwood after the events of City of Glass as they tour around Europe fresh in their relationship! Not only was it action packed and exciting like all of the Shadowhunter books, but it was also hilarious and beautifully romantic. Their relationship was so adorable I never wanted to put it down! This was a fantastic look back into the Shadowhunter Chronicles. A must read for all the Malec stans!" - Rachel (TAB Member)
