The Bane Chronicles: The Runaway Queen Sneak Peak


Shadowhunters who have already downloaded the FREE Shadowhunter app were able to see a sneak peak of the 2nd installment of The Bane Chronicles: The Runaway Queen earlier this week. 

Here's the snippet:


PARIS
June, 1971
There was a smell to Paris in the simmer mornings that Magnus enjoyed. This was surprising, because on summer mornings Paris smelled of cheese that sat int he sun all day and fish and the less desirable parts of fish. It smelled of people and all the things that people produce (this does not refer to art or culture, but to the baser things that were dumped out of windows in buckets). But these were punctuated by other odors, and the odors would shift rapidly from street to street, or building to building. That heady whiff of a bakery might be followed by an unexpected flush of gardenias in a garden, which gave way to the iron-rich pong of a slaughterhouse. Paris was nothing if not alive–the Seine pumping along like a great artery, the vessels of the wider street, narrowing down the tiniest alleys…and every inch of it had a smell.
You can purchased it here when it's out on the 21st of this month.
