When Jace vanishes with Sebastian, Clary and the Shadowhunters struggle to piece together their shattered world and Clary infiltrates the group planning the world's destruction.
4.5/5 **spoiler alert** I did love this book a lot, for now, it is my favourite of the series. In chapter 17, Valediction, I found one of the moments I cried more in this series when Alec tells Izzy about things that the shadowhunters community does to him because he is openly gay, like not being listened in the clave meetings, Alec's not asking for how is Magnus, avoiding him. The saddest part about this part is that people feel like this in real life, that's not only fiction, it is the reality for some people. Little things that hurt Alec and at the same time the ones that love him. Two years ago I read this book for the first time in Spanish and I didn't like it but now, in English, so reading the original one, without losing things in the translation, and after reading the infernal devices I think it is one of the best ones in the series, and for now one of my favourites in the Shadowhunters world. To end my review, I loved this book and in this one is the first I have been able to connect with most of the characters. ( )
Officially dnf'ing this series. I tried listening to this on audiobook and I swear every other minute was a description of the male teen body. And I just can't. This is just some downright terrible writing. Hate me if you want, but I will not force myself to read something I find so abhorrent.
Jace is missing, and Clary’s out to find him, no matter what the cost. With Sebastian back to finish what his father started, the Scooby Gang has to find a way to stop him before it’s too late. It’s almost over, it’s almost over! They still can’t be together, the world is ending, and it’s almost over! One more book and I’ll be freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ( )

Simon, I've been trying to call you, bit it seems like your phone is turned off. I don't know where your are right now. I don't know if Clary's already told you what happened tonight. But I have to go to Magnus's and I'd really like you to be there.
I'm never scared, but I'm scared for Jace. I'm scared for my brother. I never ask you for anything, Simon, but I'm asking you now. Please come.
Isabelle.
(p 379)
Now this is the Law of the Jungle, as old and as true as the sky, And the Wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the Wolf that shall break it must die. As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
(p 388-389)
To mirror when she straightaway And did her ebon hair array And for her gown she much did pay. Then down she walked along the street, A handsome lad she chanced to meet, And sore by dawn were her dainty feet, But all the boys were gay.
(p 432)
Black for hunting through the night For death and sorrow, the color's white. Gold for a bride in her wedding gown, And red to call enchantment down."
