Resumen del Editor

A number one New York Times best seller!

“A rip-roaring adventure merged with satisfying romance.” (Entertainment Weekly)

“[A] swashbuckling launch to the Eldest Curses series.” (Publishers Weekly)

From number one New York Times and USA Today best seller Cassandra Clare and award-winner Wesley Chu comes the first audiobook in a new series full of “swoon-worthy romance [and] abundant action” (Publishers Weekly). 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 before the cult can cause any more damage. 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.

I enjoyed the book, but was confused...

I enjoyed this book very much, but the timeline confused me. I thought Simon was no longer a vampire after the war and that Helen had already been exiled. Even with my confusion, it was still a very sweet story peppered with suspense and action.

Will read again!

Great story! Lots of laughter and sweet moments, a highly enjoyable read for shadowhunter series fans.

My heart!!!

I loved listening to this! Getting to hear about how their story began and i throughly enjoyed the plot. I felt as if I was seeing Alec’s character developing right in front of my eyes (or ears..?). The narration was very well done, the only thing was when he was doing the accent I had a bit of a hard time understanding him but other than that, the emotion was there. Now I am sad that it’s over and I have to go back to reality. Definitely recommend, specially if you love Malec!

A great choice

The narrator was quite good and the story was phenomenal. I can't wait for the follow on stories.

Beautiful story

I love the books it was a wonderful way to get to know more about Magnus and Alec beautiful relationship. Also love the narrator great job with the voices XD
Can’t wait for the next book hope is the same narrator as the one for this book

Another great book by Cassandra Clare!!

Cassandra Clare being my favorite author, this was another great book in her series, loved this story. Magnus is one of my favorite characters and this story about the beginning of his relationship with Alec was one I really enjoyed.

Having listened to over 200 audiobooks over the years, narration can make or break a story. BD Wong does a pretty good job with all the different voices needed, however I did find at times the accents were a bit weird.

I very much look forward to listening to the next book in the series and will truly be sad when Cassandra Clare concludes this franchise.

amazing 😍

loved every second of it! this is the story I've been waiting for! can't wait to read the second

So happy to see this story progress!

🤩 It’s wonderful to see the story of Magnus and Alec developed into a series! Their characters are fascinating and their relationship even more so. I am always so happy to see a variety of issues and topics addressed in Cassandra Clare’s stories and this one does not disappoint. Past, present, future will all come into question as you read this and entertain you till the end.

I enjoyed it

The Red Scrolls of Magic is magical, romantic, and amazing. It is filled with romance, magic, adventure, danger, mystery and secrets and pasts revealed. I loved reading about my favorite Shadowhunters series couple. Now this book is for Malec fans and is heavy on their romance, the beginnings and struggle of their relationship during the Mortal Instruments series. I love these two and love that we get to know a little more about Magnus’ past and find out what happened that was mentioned during City of Fallen Angels. I love BD Wong, he's a great actor and wasn't bad narrator either.

Biased review! 💘 it because I 💘 featured couple

So I know I overlooked some flaws because of it. I love the setting and the romance between the two. It's cute seeing the start of their romantic journey.
