Clockwork Prince release date + DSBS !!! (& TDA)

As you all know The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare is one of my favorite YA series. She has also wrote a prequel The Infernal Devices. And I've loooooved Clockwork Angel even more than The Mortal Intruments series (yes it's possible). And then I saw this week that the release date is now in december... I mean... WHAT ????!!! I just wanted to cry :(...

Anyway we have to wait some more... But Cassie has tweeted a teaser from Clockwork Prince last night. There was The Dirty Sexy Alley Scene (DSAS) in City of Fallen Angels and now there'll be The Dirty Sexy Balcony Scene (DSBS) in Clockwork Prince. HOW AWESOME IS THAT?! :D
Here's the teaser, enjoy :

He reached up and unlocked Tessa's hands from around his neck. He drew her gloves off, and they joined her mask and the hairpins on the stone floor of the balcony. He pulled off his own mask next and cast it aside, running his hands through his sweat-dampened hair, pushing it back from his forehead. The lower edge of the mask had left marks across his high cheekbones, like light scars, but when she reached to touch them, he gently caught at her hands and pressed them down.

“No,” he said. “Let me touch you first."

By the way I can't wait to see the real cover in May ;)

EDIT : Cassandra Clare last night on twitter talked about her idea of a new series. And here is what she said:
"The Dark Artifices: Okay, a quick recap. I have a plan for another Shadowhunter trilogy (contemporary, but not about the characters from TMI). Working title: The Dark Artifices. It takes place five years after the end of TMI (ie in 2012) and deals with the Shadowhunters of the Los Angeles Institute. There is a tangential connection to the characters of TMI but they are not main characters. The main characters are teens (meaning that during the events of TMI they'd be 11, 12 years old.) The main female protagonist's name is Emma, the main male protagonist's name is Julian. They are both Shadowhunters. They both have always known they are Shadowhunters. There is love, magic, romantic confusion, etc. and so on. I have not sold these books; I haven't written any of them, I won't until I'm done with what I'm writing now. So I don't have a pub date beyond "after CoHF." But thanks for being so interested, everyone!"
