Summary: Magnus thought his life was starting to make sense again but with mobs, moles, miserable exes and now missing key evidence, he could laugh cry at just how wrong he was.

Summary: Twenty years ago, Valentine Morgenstern and Luke Garroway led a team of the world’s best extractors — industrial espionage agents who steal secrets from people’s dreams. Not remotely legal and more than a little dangerous, it wasn’t until Valentine went rogue that Luke and Jocelyn, the team’s architect, decided they had to stop him.
The past catches up with them twenty years later. Clary, Jocelyn and Luke’s daughter, vows revenge on Valentine for what he does to her mom, which forces a reluctant Luke back into the field for one final mission to make sure Clary doesn’t get herself killed, too.
This last job needs a team of dedicated specialists — and who better to turn to to find them than Luke’s old friend, Maryse Lightwood? She helps Luke put together a team of the finest agents she knows — three of her children, Alec, Izzy and Jace — and, along with rookies Clary and Simon, they’ve nearly got a whole gang. If only someone knew whether the rumours about the world-famous extractor Magnus Bane resurfacing were true...

Magnus looked around at the notes spread around him. “As dear old Thomas used to say, I’ve found 10,000 ways that won’t work, so we’ll call it a productive day.”
Magnus Bane has dedicated his immortal life to science, new inventions and discovering everything magic can do. After years of hard work, he is so, so close to revolutionising transportation by creating a magical portal that actually works, but he has let his work take over his whole life. However, when Isabelle, his mundane assistant researcher, brings around her brother Alec, Magnus’s obsessive focus wavers for the first time in a decade. Maybe giving himself a few breaks will actually help him figure out the magical theory behind portals.

Summary: Magnus Bane is an excellent father, at least that was what he had thought.
Things have been busy since he became the head of ‘Downworlders’ magazine which is now one of the most popular fashion magazine, and started his own fashion line. But he didn’t realize how much he had been neglecting his children until they set the sofa on fire in his absence.
And then he found the perfect solution to his problem- a babysitter. Alexander Lightwood is perfect in every way. He is a good cook, kind and helpful, his body is built like Adonis and he has an angelic face, but most of all the kids love him. Maybe he is too perfect.
As Alec bonds with Raphael and Max and the three of them grow closer and closer Magnus starts suspecting that Alec is upto something. Tessa says he is being overdramatic and jealous but that is not true. Magnus Bane is not jealous. But as his family begans to unravel and his crush on Alec turns into something much more what is Magnus supposed to do?

Once inside, Alec attempts to wind his way through the crowds and various floors, only to realize that not only is the nightclub bigger on the inside than it is on the outside, but also that he is unable to leave. In order to find his sister and free himself and the others trapped inside, Alec must employ the help of Magnus Bane -- an elusive and alluring man whose own fate is deeply entangled with that of the club.

Summary: Magnus Bane was born with a gift. A gift to harness a power and a sense that most cannot access. A gift that made him somewhat of an outcast. He’s 28 when, one morning, he is arrested and interrogated for the murder of 3 of his clients. He’s made his living as a psychic, and that very fact makes him more than suspicious to the man in charge of the case, FBI Alec Lightwood. Unfortunate orders leave Magnus and Alec forced into an uncomfortable cohabitation. What happens when two people, so different yet similar, are forced to live together? Let’s not get too comfortable here, because the murderer is still loose…
Summary: Alec has only known one goal in life: to restore his family's name and wealth to what it once was. It has guided his actions and choices from childhood, and it is what motivates him to attend an elite party in Hong Kong where he plans to take on one of the world's most powerful businessmen. He thinks he has his family's end game all planned out, until a chance encounter leads him to a subterranean cavern beneath the party mansion - and the strange man trapped inside.
Magnus never particularly cared for humans, always thinking they were basically there for simple amusement. Still, because of one 'small' transgression against the Jade Emperor centuries ago, he has been sentenced to several lifetimes of servitude at their hands. But when an intriguing mortal stumbles into his prison, he begins to reconsider everything he's believed about them.

Summary: The year is 1894, and queer culture is quietly thriving in London and across Europe. Magnus Bane, an important and highly intelligent diplomat from Batavia, is nervous and thrilled to have been selected to negotiate greater freedoms for the people of his home country. Alec Lightwood is the eldest son of the Foreign Secretary, a dedicated student at Oxford University, and is writing his dissertation on international relations between the Dutch East Indies and the surrounding countries.
They’ll have a lot to talk about when they meet in a society gala at the Houses of Parliament. Magnus has spent his life focussing on honing his mind so he can ignore his heart, and when that mind is met with the mind of Alexander Lightwood’s, his heart cannot stay silent any longer. Alec has spent the better part of his youth exploring his identity as an openly queer man in the microcosm of his college, and refuses to accept that Magnus, a successful diplomat, can’t have his cake and eat it too.

With the knowledge of how to unlock his wings, Alec takes to the skies over New York every night, as a way to escape the sadness of his life. One night, he sees a man far too drunk to be standing that close to a railing and catches him just in time.
So starts a tentative relationship between the 'broken' Magnus Bane and his guardian angel who appears on his penthouse balcony every night. Together the two start to heal on their own and as a pair.
