Inside you'll listen to:

  • A cinematic tutorial on why the best friend (Simon) always loses out to the bad boy (Jace)
  • The benefits (no, really!) of incest...at least in literature
  • What we can read between the lines of Alec and Magnus’ European vacation
  • The importance of friendship, art, humor, and rebellion

And more, from the virtues of Downworlders to the naughty side of Shadowhunting. Number-one New York Times best-selling author Cassandra Clare created the Mortal Instruments in 2004 with City of Bones (Simon & Schuster, 2007). Since then, the series has grown to five books, with a sixth due in 2014, and been joined by two spinoff trilogies and an upcoming film starring Jamie Campbell Power and Lily Collins.

Featuring stories by Holly Black, Kendare Blake, Gwenda Bond, Sarah Rees Brennan, Rachel Caine, Sarah Cross, Kami Garcia, Michelle Hodkin, Kelly Link, Kate Milford, Diana Peterfreund, Sara Ryan, Scott Tracey, and Robin Wasserman.

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

This amalgamation of essays is truly amazing and so endearing! Each one touches ona vastly different topic, yet they all tie in so perfectly. All revolving around the plot, characters and sheer brilliance of the Mortal Instruments and Infernal Devices series!

I adore this collection!

as an actor...I love knowing the backstory of how this series came to be.
.
As someone Sephardic Moroccan Jewish, Cherokee and Irish mostly...I loved hearing how the elements came together.
.
being orthodox Jewish (modox is the closest to my observance), I see us as the light side and visible side of the bound in service to HaShem G-D with our mitzvot like the shadowhunters are the invisible fighting the dark and bound to HaShem G-D with the laws.
.
it's wonderful to hear how it came to be.

this is the backstory of how the series came to be

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I recommend this book to fans of, and those who are interested in an analysis of Cassandra Clare's Mortal Instruments series.

What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

The narrators did a great job of getting the point of view of the authors across to the reader. I also enjoyed the fact that there were multiple narrators for this book.

Any additional comments?

The book is sold at a good price and worth it. I bought this to complete my Cassandra Clare collection. I don't usually enjoy analyses of books but this was an enjoyable insight into the shadowhunter and downworlder stories.

A great analysis

Not picking at the series, at all which is very good, but of all the audio books, the ones with a single female narrator worked best. All of the multi readers detracted from the book.

Great series

I absolutely love this series! But I couldn't even get half way through the first chapter of it! I thought this was going to be more story. Nope, nada, uh uh! It is just not worth using a credit or buying it. I usually read the reviews before buy something. But didn't because of it being this series. Well I'm not going to do that again!

Not worth the use of a credit!

Super boring. I really wish I had not spent money on this. for me it was a huge waste of time.
When I bought this I was expecting more info about the characters not a college like lecture.

HUGE waste of time!
