"Are you coming with me or not?" "To where? Where are we going to go, Magnus? We're in the middle of the goddamn zombie apocalypse. Everyone we know is dead. Dead or Turned." Magnus fixed his gun over his shoulder and smiled broadly. "We can go wherever we like, Alexander. There's no rules anymore. We're all just skin and bones." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The year is 2025. Five years ago, a deadly disease was released worldwide that reanimates the dead and turns them into flesh eating corpses. Once bitten, you turn into one them. First comes the fever. Then comes death. Then the reanimation. The news will tell you to stay inside. Don't listen. They will tell you to go to an evacuation center. Don't go. They will tell to stay in large groups to ensure safety. That's not always the case. No place is safe, only safer. Either you survive or you die. Or else you're left for dead. Your choice.

DISCONTINUED A year and a half after the fall of the Institute, Alec and Magnus have finally found their little slice of heaven and settled in to a semi normal life on their farm. They have shelter. They have food. There are barely any Forsaken or any trouble. Until one day there is. Two kids show up in their neck of the woods; runaways from a nearby place that put kids to work in order to survive. Alec and Magnus reluctantly take them in, unaware of the danger that's not far behind. It isn't long before the grown men are thrown back into the harsh reality that the world isn't safe, no matter how strong your walls are. No place is safe. Only safer. [Book Two of The Forsaken Trilogy]

DISCONTINUED Six months has passed since Alec Lightwood was sent to prison for a crime he didn't commit. Everyone thinks he shot and killed his partner and younger brother, Jace Wayland. But he didn't. It was the man he, Jace and their con man consultant Magnus Bane had been tracking down. Valentine Morgenstern. Now in prison, Alec has to survive both behind bars and out amongst his fellow prisoners. Sentenced to the death penalty, Alec awaits his sentence while trying to survive amongst the rest of the prisoners, some of which have done much more than kill a cop to be put behind bars. While he waits for his death sentence, Magnus Bane comes to Alec's rescue one day and unexpectedly breaks him out with the help of a few friends. Now they're both on the run from the law as the law tracks them down. It's a race against time as they both try to clear Alec's name from the heinous crime he didn't even commit.

And that was the crux of it for Alec. Because the question wasn't, could he live with being a Vampire? It was, could he live without Magnus? Could he even live with himself if he stayed and left Magnus there? Left him to Lilith's non-existent mercy? Alec Lightwood has only one option left to him when he finds out that Magnus Bane - stuck in Edom - alone - will have to face Lilith and her army. Become a Vampire and go save his man. All he has to do is convince his friends and family that it is a good idea because it's the only one available to him. Should be easy, right?

Alec is a shy, quiet kind of guy who lands a job as the personal chef for the CEO of one of the most popular record companies in all of New York. This CEO seems like he's on top of the world in the eyes of the media, but deep down, he's a scarred man, with many skeletons in his closet who only wants to find someone to love, and be loved in return.
