Cassandra Clare told Entertainment Weekly:
Wrapping up the Mortal Instruments series was a hugely emotional time for me. It was so hard to let the characters go, but I felt I’d left them in good places. All except Simon—his ending was unconventional and open for more story. I knew I wanted him to go through the training process to become a Shadowhunter, something we haven’t really seen
But there wasn’t room for that in The Dark Artifices, the next books, because it’s a book of its own. I wound up discussing it with Maureen and Sarah, and we really missed doing The Bane Chronicles together and thought this would be a perfect second project for us since we all love Simon. Maureen actually loves him the most. We brought our friend Robin Wasserman on board as well since she’s such an amazing writer. The stories will follow Simon, but also flip back and forth in time so you can expect to see Jace and Clary, Will and Jem, Tessa, and Emma—characters old and new!
Tales from the Shadowhunter Academy will first get published as ebooks before it’ll be released as a print edition and EW will reveal the covers before each release date.
Sarah Rees Brennan actually shared that Maureen Johnson will co-write more than one ebook; the ladies are still allotting the stories.
While we are all waiting for Welcome to the Shadowhunter Academy we can read The Bane Chronicles, out on November 11, and re-read The Mortal Instruments, The Infernal Devices and The Shadowhunter’s Codex 😉

This looks really promising! Some of the best names in YA Fiction! I love stuff like this 🙂 Thank you tmisource.
By The Angel, I can’t wait!!!! Already have all the other books and have The Bane Chronicles on hold!!! So exited!!! XD
How awesome! Between this news and the talk about it possibly becoming a TV series, I’m really excited!!!
These short stories are the sweetest nod and gift to fans any author could give!! We are so very thankful! I mean, The Last Herondale….. someone knows what’s up with fans and our theories and this is an adorable nod to our theories on TLH meaning. Awwww love Cassie and the Shadowhunter world!!
(I also get the same comic teasing fake pretentious feeling from the name “Shadowhunter Academy” as “Vampire Academy”….. like: please don’t say Shadowhunter Academy Simon, you know how much I hate the S word (except the part where no one does but anyway…. who gets my ref?)
This looks awesome, cant believe I missed this.
I wonder if the publisher will publish a hardcover of all of the stories like The Bane Chronicles.
I’m pretty sure they will. 🙂
The Lost Herondale has me so excited who could it be. Is it Jace or some random Herondale we know nothing about….. maybe they’re Irish, it is released on St Patricks day!
Why only ebook?
I have been counting down the days!!! This is like Christmas! Finally get to read the first one and 28 days to the next release!!!!!
