In March 27th of 2007, Cassandra Clare’s City of Bones was published for the first time by Margaret K. McElderry Books

“We’re called Shadowhunters. At least, that’s what we call ourselves. The Downworlders have less complimentary names for us.” “Downworlders?” “The Night Children. Warlocks. The fey. The magical folk of this dimension.” Clary shook her head. “Don’t stop there. I suppose there are also, what, vampires and werewolves and zombies?” “Of course there are,” Jace informed her. “Although you mostly find zombies farther south, where the voudun priests are.” “What about mummies? Do they only hang around Egypt?” “Don’t be ridiculous. No one believes in mummies.” - Cassandra Clare, City of Bones
