Welcome to my website! I’m Cassandra Clare.  I’m a writer from Brooklyn, New York.  My first book, an urban fantasy novel for young adults centering on the adventures of the demon-fighting Nephilim (also called Shadowhunters), City of Bones, was published in 2007 by Simon and Schuster.  The next book in the series, City of Ashes, came out in 2008 and the third, City of Glass, in 2009. The next Shadowhunter book is the first of a trilogy of prequels to the Mortal Instruments series, called The Infernal Devices. It is set in London and deals with characters related to those in the Mortal Instruments books; the first volume, The Clockwork Angel, will be released September 7, 2010. The fourth Mortal Instruments book, City of Fallen Angels, will be released March 11, 2011. (It is recommended that you read The Clockwork Angel before starting CoFA, as some of the characters from Clockwork show up in it, but it’s not required.)
