ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

In Lord of Shadows, the second book in Cassandra Clare's Dark Artifices series, a rising darkness threatens the Shadowhunter world. Kit Herondale, drawn into this world against his will, finds himself grappling with his newfound identity as a Shadowhunter while navigating complex relationships with the Blackthorn family. The Unseelie King, driven by a lust for power and vengeance, seeks the Black Volume of the Dead, a powerful necromantic text capable of destroying the Shadowhunters' magic.

Internal conflicts within the Clave further complicate the situation, as the Cohort, a faction advocating for Downworlder segregation, gains traction. The return of Annabel Blackthorn from the dead adds another layer of mystery and tension. Julian Blackthorn, seeking to protect his family and the world, makes a desperate bargain with Annabel, promising to help her clear her name in exchange for the Black Volume. The story explores themes of family, loyalty, prejudice, and the struggle against overwhelming darkness.
