From #1 New York Times bestselling authors Cassandra Clare and Wesley Chu comes the second book in the Eldest Curses series and a thrilling adventure for High Warlock Magnus Bane and Alec Lightwood, for whom a death-defying mission into the heart of evil is not just a job, it’s also a romantic getaway. The Lost Book of the White is a Shadowhunters novel.

Life is good for Magnus Bane and Alec Lightwood. They’re living together in a fabulous loft, their warlock son, Max, has started learning to walk, and the streets of New York are peaceful and quiet—as peaceful and quiet as they ever are, anyway.

Until the night that two old acquaintances break into Magnus’s 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 that is changing the very nature of his powers.

Fortunately, their backup consists of Clary, Jace, Isabelle, and newly minted Shadowhunter Simon. In Shanghai, they learn that a much darker threat awaits them. Magnus’s magic is growing unstable, and if they can’t stop the demons flooding into the city, they might have to follow them all the way back to the source—to the very realm of the dead.

the story was good, but I did not care for the narration. the accents the narrator used were horrible. he made the New York shadowhunter sound like California surfers and Jem had a completely Chinese accent. Not like he had been based out of England and Idras for over a hundred years.

just my opinion.

Good story, but bad narration

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

it takes a while to get into the story mostly because he makes people sound immature, without substance, overly feminine

love the books not the reader

must listen

I love all the Shadowhunter books. The characters are engaging & memorable. I didn't like the way this guy interpreted the characters. Simon sounded depressed all the time, very monotone. But Jem's voice, ugh! Jem does not have a horrible Chinese accent, he has always had an English accent! It almost made it impossible to listen to.

Love the story, Hate the narrator!

Having learned after hearing vol.1 that there excist a billion other books you're suppose to hear before this series, I enjoyed it overall.
Had a few ??? throughout vol.2 the most, but was able to google the answers, having fallen in love with Magnus the most I don't think I will be able to listen to the other stories if he isn't the main character so I will just stay in this bobble of his stories and look forward to vol.3

The voice actor was amazing and I hopefully wish for him again in vol.3

Enjoyable
