Booklist
In search of a potion for her dying mother, Clary sneaks
into the City of Glass and is immediately caught up in a
life-and-death battle. As the children of the Moon
(werewolves), Night (vampires), and Faerie gather for a war
that will rend the heavens, Clary calls upon her untrained
powers to control an angel who will save or destroy them
all. Readers should be familiar with the first two
installments in the Mortal Instruments series, but there is
nevertheless plenty of romance, loss, honor, and betrayal to
make the journey worthwhile. An experienced storyteller,
Clare moves the plot quickly to a satisfying end.
Product Description
To save her mother's life, Clary must travel to the City of
Glass, the ancestral home of the Shadowhunters -- never mind
that enter-ing the city without permission is against the
Law, and breaking the Law could mean death. To make things
worse, she learns that Jace does not want her there, and
Simon has been thrown in prison by the Shadowhunters, who
are deeply suspicious of a vampire who can withstand
sunlight.
As Clary uncovers more about
her family's past, she finds an ally in mysterious
Shadow-hunter Sebastian. With Valentine mustering the full
force of his power to destroy all Shadow-hunters forever,
their only chance to defeat him is to fight alongside their
eternal enemies. But can Downworlders and Shadowhunters put
aside their hatred to work together? While Jace realizes
exactly how much he's willing to risk for Clary, can she
harness her newfound powers to help save the Glass City --
whatever the cost?
Love is a mortal sin and the
secrets of the past prove deadly as Clary and Jace face down
Valentine in the final installment of the New York Times
bestselling trilogy The Mortal Instruments.
