‘The Shadowhunter Chronicles’ meet classic fairy tales
Exciting news for fans of Cassandra Clare’s The Shadowhunter Chronicles and classic fairy tales! Cassie and Cassandra Jean are teaming up to turn our beloved The Shadowhunter Chronicles characters into characters from fairy tales.
This – and more – was announced in Cassie’s newsletter which was sent out last week:
I’m excited to share a new project I’m working on with Cassandra Jean, in which we pair Shadowhunters with classic fairy tales! You may have seen a detail of this illustration as my twitter icon. Here’s the whole beautiful thing! It’s not just going to be an online project, it will be in print as well. Details to come!
We love this ♥ Jocelyn looks so pretty and magical.
Cassandra Jean also took to her tumblr to talk about the collaboration:
This sounds like so much fun – we hope that Emma and Julian are going to be the characters from Sleeping Beauty because it would be so fitting.
Furthermore, it looks like we are getting even more books set in the Shadow World!
I also got a bunch of work done on Queen of Air and Darkness, and another secret project that I can’t talk about quite yet.
For those who loved Tales from the Shadowhunter Academy and The Bane Chronicles, hold onto your hats! We’ll have some exciting news for you very soon. : )
By the Angel, could this mean more short stories co-written with Sarah Rees Brennan, Maureen Johnson and Robin Wasserman?
We are so excited for Cassie’s new projects and cannot wait for more details! 😀

Darn you Cassandra Clare, you took my idea! Jk, jk xD I’m sure hers will be way better than anything my caffeine-fried brain can concoct (especially since I just scribble down curious tales in my free time). I can’t wait to read the short stories! They’ll be a treat.
Definitely happy to hear that Q.A.D. is coming along well too. I can’t believe I’ll be an adult when I finally get to read it though 😦
Also, ‘secret project’? Color me most curious *sips coffee with a mischievous smile* I’ll be waiting for updates on this.
Wow I can’t wait to read it. I’ve tried to do something like that a few times but my sisters jack with my computer the like that there goes what little I had of Clary as Cinderella and Jace Prince Charming.
Rapunzel could be Simon and Isabelle. I think that would be perfect for them, especially with Isabelle’s beauty.
I would think Beauty and the Beast for Tessa and Will would be perfect for them 🙂
