Magnus Bane: The High Warlock of Brooklyn

Hi guys!! I'm currently reading The Mortal Instruments Book Series (just finished reading City of Ashes though). Actually, I watched the film adaptation of City of Bones in 2013 but I didn't read the book at that time.



When I first saw the movie, I kinda disappointed with the movie. I didn't really understand the story or whatever. But then, about 2 months ago, I re-watched the movie and then I started to notice one character: Magnus Bane.

Which one do you prefer?

I didn't know why but he caught my attention. So, I started "stalk" him and I found some fun facts. Maybe I drawn to him because we share some mutual interests like: Magnus's favorite combination is blue eyes and black hair, so do I, I was born in December and so was he, and I also found this: He was born in Batavia, Dutch East Indies (now Jakarta, Indonesia). Yes! I'm an Indonesian. In the book, he is using Bahasa when confessed his love to Alec (Yes, he's bisexual).

Got this from pinterest

I know I'm exaggerating things. BUT, I'm SOOOO shocked when I found out his birthplace. Why Cassandra Clare made Batavia as his birth place? I'm dying to know. Below is Cassie's answer when fans asked her about the process of his creation.

From Cassie's twitter.

Well, maybe we'll find out later. Because of my curiosity, I started to follow Cassandra Clare on Instagram, Twitter and Tumblr. I found out many things about him. In the most recent snippet, she wrote that Magnus adopt a baby warlock. I'm sooo curious!!! Because the book isn't available yet in printed edition and it is SOOO DAMN HARD to find it online.

I also bought THE BANE CHRONICLES to find out more about Magnus Bane. And I fall in love with him. He is the sweetest guy that I have ever met (or read). His love to Alec made me burn with jealousy. How can a man love his lover like him? Despite their huge age gap, gender (they both male) and status (Magnus is a Downwolders and Alec is a Shadowhunters). It doesn't mean that I support same-sex relationship but seeing them made me realize that love has no boundaries (which I agree, sometimes) and you you have to cherish the people who loves you and people who you love. Okay, I think that's enough for today. See you later! xoxo

There is no Indonesian translation for this book (yet),
so I had to buy the English version instead
