From #1 New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Cassandra Clare and award-winning author Wesley Chu comes the second book in the Eldest Curses series, which continues the love story between Magnus Bane and Alec Lightwood. The Lost Book of the White is a Shadowhunters novel.

Magnus Bane and Alec Lightwood are settling into domestic life with their son Max when the warlocks Ragnor Fell and Shinyun Jung break into their loft and steal a powerful spell book. Realizing that Ragnor and Shinyun are being controlled by a more sinister force, Magnus and Alec set out to stop them and recover the book before they can cause any more harm. With the help of Clary Fairchild, Jace Herondale, Isabelle Lightwood, and Simon Lovelace (who is fresh from the Shadowhunter Academy), they track the warlocks to Shanghai.

But nothing is as it seems. Ragnor and Shinyun are working at the behest of a Greater Demon. Their goal is to open a Portal from the demon realms to Earth, flooding the city of Shanghai with dangerous demons. When a violent encounter causes Magnus’s magic to grow increasingly unstable, Alec and Magnus rally their friends to strike at the heart of the demon’s power. But what they find there is far stranger and more nefarious than they ever could have expected…

The Lost Book of the White é o segundo livro do universo dos Caçadores de Sombras que tem o Alec e o Magnus como protagonistas, e vamos falar a verdade... Esse livro só existe para revisitarmos o universo e matarmos a saudade dos personagens de Os Instrumentos Mortais. Esse livro, sinceramente, não me parece ter outro propósito a não ser agradar os fãs, a não ser que o epílogo seja a premissa da nova trilogia. O grande entretenimento desse livro, como sempre, é o Magnus, mas a autora poderia ter focado um pouco mais nos aspectos da vida familiar dos protagonistas.
