Book #141 City of Glass (Mortal Instruments) by Cassandra Clare

August 7, 2009 By Mary Leave a Comment

City of Glass (Mortal Instruments) by Cassandra Clare
4 out of 5
(spoiler alert)
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.

A very satisfying conclusion to the Mortal Instruments trilogy. This missed being a true 5 for me since there were a few slow parts and a somewhat predictable ending. I guessed that Valentine was not Jace’s father and was actually quite happy that it turned out to be true. The series couldn’t have ended any other way and I was satisfied with the outcome. This is really a page turner and had a lot of quick humor. I am sad that this story is over though.
