From #1 New York Times bestseller Cassandra Clare and award-winner Wesley
Chu comes the first book in a new series that follows High Warlock Magnus
Bane and Alec Lightwood as they tour the world after the Mortal War. The
Red Scrolls of Magic is a Shadowhunters novel. All Magnus Bane wanted was a
vacation—a lavish trip across Europe with Alec Lightwood, the Shadowhunter
who against all odds is finally his boyfriend. But as soon as the pair
settles in Paris, an old friend arrives with news about a demon-worshipping
cult called the Crimson Hand that is bent on causing chaos around the
world. A cult that was apparently founded by Magnus himself. Years ago. As
a joke. Now Magnus and Alec must race across Europe to track down the
Crimson Hand and its elusive new leader before the cult can cause any more
damage. As if it wasn’t bad enough that their romantic getaway has been
sidetracked, demons are now dogging their every step, and it is becoming
harder to tell friend from foe. As their quest for answers becomes
increasingly dire, Magnus and Alec will have to trust each other more than
ever—even if it means revealing the secrets they’ve both been keeping.
