I'm lost... What was this even about? Like seriously, I have no idea!Nothing is permanent," Magnus said. "I know this from experience. But you can get new things. You can meet new people. You can go on. I loved how this short story was set in 1929 New York, while Magnus is trying to run a speakeasy. And seeing his magic camouflage this secret pub into a tea party was pretty much the best thing ever. Sadly, thats all I truly enjoyed about it. I mean, I guess seeing Hotel Dumort almost become a portal to Hell was pretty cool, too. But this story, and the new
3,5 starsThe 1920's setting is something I could get used to.
This isn't the time for jokes, BaneEver find fanfiction or a role player of a certain character but it seems that the writer has made the character into nothing but a select few personality traits and failed to round them out at all. In the original series, Mangus started out likable enough, and with these novellas focused on him they could have strengthened that likability. Instead, the very creator of this character has decided that it's more 'witty' and 'entertaining' to make Mangus nothing
The problem with those chronicles is that, apparently, someone decided that "it has Magnus in it" was enough effort.I love Magnus, he's one of the most interesting characters in Cassandra Clare's chronicles so far but why, why, WHY do the Bane chronicles have to be made of 80% useless filler, 10% pseudo-romantic subplot and end up with things that are *nothing* like what the summary/book advertizes?This is supposed to show the rise of the Hotel Dumort as we saw it in City of Bones, aka how it

Spoilers-Really boring. There was barely any plot. The first 20 odd pages was just Magnus whining about his Speakeasy, the cops, and a bunch of random humans using him for his money/club/hotel. And then the last few pages he was sorting out some silly demon problem at some other hotel.-Magnus was as shallow as usual. He only ever likes young and handsome people, anyone unattractive he either dislikes or dismisses. Ugh.-Why does Magnus hate Shadowhunters so much? What have they ever done to him?
