Of course I loved this book. I mean what’s not to love after City of Bones? It just built right on top of that brilliantly. Jace has to deal with finding out who he really is, Clary’s dealing with Simon’s growing affections. Simon is now a Vampire. Jace and Clary have to figure out how to be around each other, and all while trying to guess Valentine’s next move.
Full of Vamps, Werewolves, Warlocks and demons I think this series will definitly appeal to both sexes. I can’t say much more or I’ll give to much away. Looking forward to City of Glass.
"You Might want to lie down," Magnus advised. "I find that it helps when the crushing sense of horrible realization sets in."
Isabelle drifted over, Jace a pace behind her. She was wearing a long black dress with boots and an even longer cutaway coat of soft green velvet, the color of moss. "I can't believe you did it!" she exclaimed. "How did you get Magnus to let Jace leave?"
"Traded him for Alec," Clary said.
Isabelle looked mildly alarmed. "Not permanently?"
"No," said Jace. "Just for a few hours. Unless I don't come back," he added thoughtfully. "In which case, maybe he does get to keep Alec. Think of it as a lease with an option to buy."
Isabelle looked dubious. "Mom and Dad won't be pleased if they find out."
"That you freed a possible criminal by trading away your brother to a warlock who looks like a gay Sonic the Hedgehog and dresses like the Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang?" Simon inquired. "No, probably not."
Jace put his head in his hands. "Tell Isabelle no."
"But she thinks it's a good idea," Alec protested.
"Then tell her no twice."
Magnus got to his feet. "I do believe that's my cue to leave as well," he said. Clary noticed he was avoiding looking at Alec. "I'd say it's been nice meeting you all, but, in fact, it hasn't. It's been quite awkward, and frankly, the next time I see a single one of you will be far too soon."
"Every time you almost die, I almost die myself."
