George Blagden ( Les Miserables) does an excellent job narrating the story.

Magnus agrees, knowing that while it is dangerous to interfere in human conflicts, he would be willing do it for this one man.Ĭassandra Clare teams up with Shades of London author Maureen Johnson to write this thrilling and interesting little piece of fantastical historical fiction. Until a man, a very attractive one at that, asks for Magnus’ help to save Queen Marie Antoinette from being kidnapped and taken hostage. It’s a tense time for mundane politics being a warlock and not really part of the human world, Magnus tries not to pay much attention to simmering revolution.

Magnus loves France and everything the rebels and revolutions distaste: over-the-top, extravagant luxury. The Runaway Queen follows Magnus in France during the French Revolution.

The second installment of The Bane Chronicles offers up a better story with a different look at the Magnus Bane we all love.
