Review:
The Bane Chronicles will quite literally have you laughing out loud. I can practically guarantee it. This novel consists of 11 short stories. In my copy, at the beginning of every story, there was a comic with a scene from that story. The comics were my favorite part. It gave a sneak peak into what was going to happen in that story- but not so much that it spoiled the entire chapter.

It gave glimpses into Magnus’ past. I think my favorite would have to be Saving Raphael Santiago. If you've read it, what is your favorite?

This is such a great addition to The Mortal Instruments and it is super entertaining!
