The final installment of The Bane Chronicles was released today.

The course of True Love (and First Dates) is the only book in The Bane Chronicles that was only written by Cassandra Clare. The other installments were co-written with Sarah Rees Brennan and Maureen Johnson.

Currently this mini book series is only available via e-reader, however it will be released in book form in November for those who do not have e-readers or for those who just want to add it to their collection of books.

Magnus Bane and Alec Lightwood might fall in love—but first they have a first date.

When Magnus Bane, warlock, meets Alec Lightwood, Shadowhunter, sparks fly. And what happens on their first date lights a flame…

– By Cassandra Clare

All the covers of the installments will come together to make one picture for the book released in November:

Here is what Cassie had to say about The Bane Chronicles:

Question: Cassie, will there be a whole new cover for The Bane Chronicles’ print edition? — addictedtothese

Answer: Here it is! Magnus’ pretty face, revealed in honor of the release of the last of the Bane Chronicles, The Course of True Love (And First Dates)  which details Magnus’ first date with Alec, and how it went horribly wrong and then oh so right. 🙂

The print edition will release in November, and has a special bonus mini-story in it as a reward for those who had to wait for print. 🙂 It also contains interstitial comics drawn by Cassandra Jean!

Maureen and Sarah and I had a blast working on the Bane Chronicles. It was a fun, fantastic experience filled with terrible green jokes about Ragnor, sexy audiobook readers, and of course, lots of time spent with Magnus, which is always a good thing. Thanks so much to everyone for your support of TBC!
