I only just finished this book a few days ago, but i could hardly put it down once i had started! Excellent read without a doubt. Always a shame when you come to the last page haha, but time to move onto the 3rd novel!!

Description

This is the second book in the bestselling urban fantasy trilogy, “The Mortal Instruments”.With her mother in a coma and her father hell-bent on destroying the world, Clary is dragged deeper into New York's terrifying underworld of werewolves, demons and the mysterious Shadowhunters. Discovering the truth about her past was only the beginning, now Clary must save the world from her own father – the rogue Shadowhunter Valentine.

With two of the Mortal Instruments at his command, Valentine is assembling an army of demons to wage war on the council of Shadowhunters and destroy them once and for all. As the battle begins, Clary must face her darkest fears – and come to terms with her feelings for a boy she wishes wasn't her brother.

Reviews

“Her first novel in the Mortal Instruments series, City of Bones, was a witty, action-packed urban fantasy of vampires, warlocks and shapeshifters. In book two, City of Ashes, readers are lured back into the dark grip of New York City's Downworld, where love is never safe and power becomes the deadliest weapon.” booktopia

“The Mortal Instruments series is a story world I want to live in” Stephenie Meyer, author of ‘Twilight’.

“Funny, dark and sexy … Cassie's writing makes my toes curl with envy.” Holly Black, author of “The Spiderwick Chronicles”.

“Like “Twilight,” vampires and werewolves populate The Mortal Instruments’s fan­tasy world, but the trilogy – which wraps up with the March 24 release of “City of Glass” – is chiefly concerned with more heavenly matters: the nephilim, humans with angel blood in their veins. The series follows 15-year-old Brooklyn girl Clary Fray’s whirlwind introduction to the world of Shadowhunters, nephilim warriors who protect oblivious humans from dangers presented by vamps, werewolves and other kinds of baddies. If you thought that human Bella and vampire Edward’s rela­tionship was fraught with issues, imagine how much more traumatic it is for Clary to find out that the guy she’s in love with might just be…”-The New York Post
