SHADOWHUNTER'S CODEX Sneak Peek #2 from Simonteen

Synopsis:

Delve into the details of all things Shadowhunter with this illustrated guide to the knowledge and lore of the Shadowhunter world.

Since the thirteenth century, the Shadowhunter’s Codex has been the one and only manual for Shadowhunters looking to brush up on their demon languages, learn proper stele use, and discover just what exactly a pyxis is. Featured in both The Mortal Instruments and The Infernal Devices, this guide is a necessity for any young Nephilim on their journey to becoming a Shadowhunter. Beautifully illustrated, the Codex contains images of the famous Shadowhunter homeland of Idris, as well as depictions of demons and other Downworlders.

But this isn’t just any copy of The Shadowhunter’s Codex. It’s Clary’s copy, and as an artist herself, she’s sketched pictures of her friends and family in the book, and scrawled helpful advice in the margins. Of course, she couldn’t exactly stop Jace or Simon from adding their thoughts either. Part encyclopedia, part history, part training manual—complete with commentary from Shadowhunters who have seen it all—this beautiful guide is a perfect supplement to the #1 New York Times bestselling series.

SHADOWHUNTER'S CODEX Sneak Peek of the First Few Pages from Simonteen

Earlier today, Cassandra Clare gave us a sneak peek of the first page on Shadowhunter names, and now, Simonteen has started releasing snippets from the book. Simonteen will start releasing snippets each day until the day of the release -Oct. 29. Here are the first few pages (click to englarge):

 

 

A lot of Shadowhunters were also wondering what the difference is between The Shadowhunter's Codex hardcover and the limited edition. Cassandra Clare explains that:

The regular Codex has all the art and the text but not colored. So the differences are the velvet slipcase (a case you can slide the book out of), and gold Cup, the gold pages and ribbon, etc. It’s basically a really beautiful object. But the regular version is pretty too and contains no less information! So it’s really up to you what you want. 

Perks of Pre-Ordering CITY OF HEAVENLY FIRE Early

Just like the last book of The Infernal Devices, the last book of The Mortal Instruments (City of Heavenly Fire) will have some extra content inside the book jacket for North American Hard Cover First Editions.

Cassandra Clare has the details:

What the CoHF special first edition cover offers is basically a chance to see Cliff (the cover artist who has done all my covers) do his take on characters that would otherwise not make it onto covers, especially since this is the last book about them.

And in another tumblr post, Cassandra Clare tells us:

There are of course two figures on the proper cover of the book, but other characters, some who we’ve never seen on covers before, will be on the inside of the first edition’s jacket.
And that’s all I can say right now …

Once again, when the collectors first editions are sold out, that's it -there will be no second batch of collectors editions. Make sure you pre-order the book soon!

Catch up on the Latest Women of the Shadowhunter Universe Calendar Pictures

This Women-of-the-Shadowhunter-world Calendar originally started with Men of the Shadowhunter Universe Calendar. These calendars are drawn by illustrator, Cassandra Jean, with the help of Cassandra Clare.

So the beautiful Cassandra (NOT me, Cassandra Jean) as you know collaborated to create a calendar of the TMI/TID/TDA/TLH boys — Men of the Shadowhunter Universe, I guess — and while I don’t know what we’re going to do with it yet, we decided to do a matching calendar for the girls. Cassandra wanted to work with classic pinup poses, so here’s Grace from TLH being ice queen January, and Helen and Aline being February 2014, celebrating Valentine’s Day*. Lookit Helen’s cute pointy ears!

*But not the way Valentine celebrates it.

More calendar pics! March Cecily and April Maia — I put them alongside March Will and April Matthew for compare and contrast. Everyone looks gorgeous thanks to Cassandra Jean.
Tiny wubbins baby wolf!

Lily Collins is the New Face of Lancôme

Wow! Look at the fabolous photo of Lily Collins posing to be the new "face" of Lancôme. ENews has the scoop:

The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones actress has been named Brand Ambassadress for Lancôme. Which means in addition to popping up in glossy magazine ads—her first will be for Lancôme's French Ballerine makeup collection to released in January—the star now has even more reason to experiment with her red carpet hair and makeup.
Over the last year alone she has shown a true talent in being a beauty chameleon. Although she naturally she has Snow White's looks (she even played the famous heroine in 2012'sMirror Mirror) she isn't afraid to go full on gothic glamour—which she did most recently at Paris Fashion Week. 

Lily Collins told ET about how she is so honoured to be representing the Maison Lancôme "I have always admired the brand's unique and distinctive appreciation for inner beauty and grace, elegance and utter radiance. I feel incredibly lucky to be included among the most inspirational women ambassadresses for one of the most prestigious brands in the world. It’s truly a dream come true."

Congrats, Lily!

Fun Fact: Lily Collins has Gotten so Popular on the Internet, She'll Lead you to Viruses

Lily Collins has just received the torch for "Most Dangerous Cyber Celebrity" from Harry Potter's Emma Watson. What this means is Lily Collins has been named by McAfee as the No. 1 celebrity who will most likely lead you to a computer virus for 2013.

Harry Potter star Emma Watson is a has-been!
The girl we watched grow up as Hermione Granger may have a bright future as an actress and fashion icon, but her dubious distinction as "Most Dangerous Cyber Celebrity" has been usurped by the female star of the latest supernatural series to hit the big screen, "The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones" star Lily Collins.
Collins, daughter of musician Phil Collins and No. 4 on People's "Most Beautiful Women" in 2012, is McAfee's No. 1 celebrity most likely to lead to a computer virus for 2013. According to the Internet security firm, searching for the latest Lily Collins pictures and downloads yields a nearly one-in-seven chance of "landing on a website that has tested positive for online threats, such as spyware, adware, spam, phishing, viruses and other malware."

We all love to search 'Lily Collins' on google, but just be careful on what sites you visit.
