Dopo quanto è accaduto nella Città del fuoco celeste, Simon Lewis - che è stato prima umano e poi vampiro - ha perso tutti i suoi ricordi e non sa più chi è veramente. Sa per certo di essere amico di Clary e anche di aver convinto la bellissima Isabelle Lightwood a uscire con lui, ma non ha memoria di come ci sia riuscito. E quando si rende conto che le due ragazze, ma non solo loro, iniziano ad aspettarsi da lui che si comporti come farebbe il ragazzo che conoscevano tanto bene, la situazione diventa insostenibile. Decide perciò di entrare nell'Accade-mia Shadowhunters e iniziare l'apprendistato per diventare un cacciatore di demoni. Forse, spera Simon, in questo modo riuscirà a ritrovare se stesso, qualunque cosa questo significhi. Le cronache dell'Accademia Shadowhunters raccoglie per la prima volta in un solo volume tutte le tappe dell'impegnativo apprendistato da Shadowhunter di uno dei personaggi più amati di "The Mortal Instruments". I dieci racconti, scaturiti dalla penna di Cassandra Clare, Sarah Rees Brennan, Maureen Johnson e Robin Wasserman, pubblicati originariamente in e-book, sono arricchiti dalle illustrazioni di Cassandra Jean.

Chi è davvero Magnus Bane? Dalla Parigi della Rivoluzione francese alla New York degli anni ’70, Cassandra Clare ci accompagna attraverso luoghi ed epoche affascinanti alla scoperta dei retroscena più avvincenti del passato di questo eclettico e inafferrabile personaggio che ha vissuto mille vite in una, tutte legate da un filo rosso: la perenne lotta tra la forza dell’amore e quella del destino, a cui nessuno può opporsi, neppure il Sommo Stregone degli Shadowhunters.

"The Borderlands aren't like anywhere else. Don't try to smuggle a phone or any other piece of technology over the wall that marks the Border -- unless you enjoy a fireworks display in your backpack. (Ballpoint pens are okay.) There are elves, harpies, and -- best of all as far as Elliot is concerned -- mermaids. Elliot is thirteen years old. He's smart and just a tiny bit obnoxious. Sometimes more than a tiny bit. When his class goes on a field trip and he can see a wall that no one else can see, he is given the chance to go to school in the Borderlands. It turns out that on the other side of the wall, classes involve a lot more weaponry and fitness training and fewer mermaids than he expected. On the other hand, there's Serene-Heart-in-the-Chaos-of-Battle, an elven warrior who is more beautiful than anyone Elliot has ever seen, and then there's her human friend Luke: sunny, blond, and annoyingly likeable. There are lots of interesting books. There's even the chance Elliot might be able to change the world. In Other Lands is the exhilarating book about surviving four years in the most unusual of schools, about friendship, falling in love, diplomacy, and finding your own place in the world -- even if it means giving up your phone."-- Provided by publisher
