The Lost Book of the White is a Shadowhunters novel.
Life is good for Magnus Bane and Alec Lightwood. Theyβre living together in a fabulous loft, their warlock son, Max, has started learning to walk, and the streets of New York are peaceful and quietβas peaceful and quiet as they ever are, anyway.
Until the night that two old acquaintances break into Magnusβs apartment and steal the powerful Book of the White. Now Magnus and Alec will have to drop everything to get it back. They need to follow the thieves to Shanghai, they need to call some backup to accompany them, and they need a babysitter.
Also, someone has stabbed Magnus with a strange magical weapon and the wound is glowing, so they have that to worry about too.
Fortunately, their backup consists of Clary, Jace, Isabelle, and newly minted Shadowhunter Simon. In Shanghai, they learn that a much darker threat awaits them. Magnusβs magic is growing unstable, and if they canβt stop the demons flooding into the city, they might have to follow them all the way back to the sourceβto the very realm of the dead. Can they stop the threat to the world? Will they make it back home before their kid completely wears out Alecβs mom?
