Lord of Shadows Special Editions Guide / #Shadowhunters #LordofShadows


Who's ready to get their hands on Lord of Shadows? We certainly are. If you're like us, you're probably trying to figure out which edition or editions you want to pre-order. Let's be honest, it's hard not purchasing all of the different editions. Cassie has made it much easier for fans to decide which edition to get. She recently shared a guide to the special editions of LOS. Check out the guide below.

guide to the special content that will be available in various first editions in the US and UK


US EDITIONS 
1. Target – Map of Alicante 



From Cassie's post sharing the map, she said: Detail from the map of Alicante in the back of Target editions of Lord of Shadows – I love seeing the Gard and even the alley where Jace burned his handprints! For a full rundown of special editions of LoS, stay tuned. #tda, #shadowhunters, #tsc

2. Barnes and Noble – An exclusive scene of Emma and Julian on Blackfriars Bridge in which they discuss Will, Tessa and Jem
3. Costco – Julian’s portrait of Emma, described in Lady Midnight posted here



Per Cassie:


“It was half-finished, an image of Emma striding out of the ocean, Cortana strapped to her hip. Her hair was down, as it was in most of the pictures, and he had made it look like the spray of the ocean at sunset, when the last rays of daylight turned the water to a brutal gold. She looked beautiful, fierce, as terrible as a goddess.” Cassandra Jean’s interpretation of Julian’s portrait of Emma from Lady Midnight. It will appear in the back of Costco editions of Lord of Shadows in the U.S!


Also from Cassie: 

In addition, ALL FIRST EDITIONS WILL BE PRINTED WITH 30 NEW RUNES BY VAL FREIRE, THE ORIGINAL DESIGNER OF THE SHADOWHUNTER RUNES! That’s ALL FIRST EDITIONS OF LORD OF SHADOWS IN NORTH AMERICA. SO IF YOU WANT THOSE RUNES, THE BEST IDEA IS TO PRE-ORDER THE BOOK FROM ANY BOOKSTORE OR WEBSITE.

UK EDITIONS: 
1.  W.H. Smiths and Easons—Trade Paperback special edition including interior cover printing of Shadowhunter runes 
2. Waterstones—Trade Paperback special edition featuring sprayed colour edges and scene of Emma and Julian on Blackfriars Bridge.
3. Hardback special limited edition (matching the UK Lady Midnight special edition hardback) featuring scene of Emma and Julian on Blackfriars Bridge and Map of Alicante.


This is one of my favorite editions of Cassie's books, which is the special UK edition. They are doing on similar for Lord of Shadows, only it will have the parabatai rune on the outside. Cassie confirmed that recently when a fan had asked if the UK hardback special limited edition will have the 30 new runes, which YES it will. 

Which edition(s) will you be purchasing?
