We are so excited about this news, that Cassie has posted via her website-
City of Fallen Angels will be released worldwide in English in March, 2011.
I usually post excerpts of upcoming books on the website about eight months before publication. In the case of City of Fallen Angels, it's going to be a little different: the American paperback of City of Glass will be released on August 3, 2010, and it will contain a full chapter of City of Fallen Angels in it, as well as a full chapter of Clockwork Angel, the first book in the Mortal Instruments prequel series The Infernal Devices, which is going to be released August 31, 2010. (Since there is no special paperback release date in the UK/Aus/NZ, Clockwork Angel, when released there in August/September, will contain the full chapter of City of Fallen Angels.)
Until the release date of the paperback of Glass, I'm embargoed (forbidden) from sharing excerpts of Fallen Angels, but you can find an excerpt of Clockwork Angel here! Remember, the correct order to read the Shadowhunter books is in publication order—characters from Clockwork Angel show up in Mortal Instruments 4, and it will make better sense to you if you've started CA already. You don't have to read CA—both series are totally comprehensible on their own, and neither spoils the other—but in much the same way that reading The Magician's Nephew is more fun if you've read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, reading City of Fallen Angels is more fun if you've read The Clockwork Angel first!
