Delve into the details of all things Shadowhunter with
this illustrated guide to the knowledge and lore of the
Shadowhunter world.
Since the thirteenth century, the Shadowhunter’s Codex has
been theone and only manual for Shadowhunters
looking to brush up on their demon languages, learn proper
stele use, and discover just what exactly a pyxis is.
Featured in both The Mortal Instruments and The Infernal
Devices, this guide is a necessity for any young Nephilim on
their journey to becoming a Shadowhunter. Beautifully
illustrated, the Codex contains images of the famous
Shadowhunter homeland of Idris, as well as depictions of
demons and other Downworlders.
But this isn’t just any copy of The Shadowhunter’s
Codex. It’s Clary’s copy, and as an artist herself,
she’s sketched pictures of her friends and family in the
book, and scrawled helpful advice in the margins. Of course,
she couldn’t exactly stop Jace or Simon from adding their
thoughts either. Part encyclopedia, part history, part
training manual—complete with commentary from Shadowhunters
who have seen it all—this beautiful guide is a perfect
supplement to the #1 New York Times bestselling series.
