Snippet from ‘The Bane Chronicles – The Last Stand of the New York Institute’

Today Sarah Rees Brennan, co-author of The Bane Chronicles, joined Cassandra Jean’s livestream and she shared a snippet from the 8th installment of Cassandra Clare, Maureen Johnson and Sarah Rees Brennan’s collaboration – The Last Stand of the New York Institute.

Check out the snippet:

He was curled up on the sofa with Tessa, and they were watching a video of Pride and Prejudice. Tessa was complaining at some length about how the book had been better.
“This is not what Jane Austen would have wanted,” Tessa told him. “If she could see this, I am certain she would be horrified.”
“If she could see this,” said Magnus, “I assume that she would be screaming “There are tiny demons in this little box! Fetch a clergyman!’ and hitting the television with her parasol.”

Sarah also added “and then they are interrupted by a knock on the door. It’s another character you guys know.”

Here’s the official synopsis from Amazon:

Magnus meets Valentine in battle as the Circle attacks the Downworlders of New York City. One of the ten adventures in the Bane Chronicles.

In the time of the Uprising, Valentine’s Circle goes after Downworlders in New York…and the Shadowhunters of the Institute must decide whether to join him, or fight with Magnus and his kind. This is the first time Magnus sees Jocelyn, Luke, and Stephen—but not the last. It is not long before Jocelyn seeks him out…

The Last Stand of the New York Institute will be released on November 19!
