Suddenly able to see demons and the Darkhunters who are dedicated to returning them to their own dimension, fifteen-year-old Clary Fray is drawn into this bizzare world when her mother disappears and Clary herself is almost killed by a monster.
HatsForMice: Girl pulled into a fantasy world only to discover she's a part of it. Stephanie/Valkyrie is a stronger character than Clary, too.
Obviously this is for a slightly younger readership, so if you're in it for the romance, you won't find it here until the 4th book.… (plus d'informations)
When I finished this book, I felt angry with the lack of resolution so I read the 2nd book to find out what happened. After reading the 2nd book, I am stopping because there still has not been enough resolution, and now I don't care enough to want to find out. I don't care for this style of writing where I feel manipulated into wanting to know more, through painstaking withholding of information and cliffhanger-type endings. Instead, I like to care about what happens to the characters because I like them - or have come to care about them despite not liking them because the author has written them with insight and sympathy.

This is really a good book , well written book and also this book is really interesting and makes you go deep into the book and forget the real world.This book is truly interesting one and was very intriguing. I am really amazed by the writers thinking and imagination capabilities. ( )
My favourite book and one of my favourite series, it’s a great idea, amazing world she has created and great relatable, diverse characters. Lots of twists and an easy to read style of writing that flows really well, this was a book I read in school and loved just as much as I still do, although it is a long series and the last book IMO was disappointing and rushed ( )
Unnecessarily long. Wasn’t interesting. I remember Booktube hyping this up but I missed that train and at 28, I don’t think it’s worth the hype it had or still has.
It's over..... It's finally over! I wanted to like this especially since a young friend of mine really wanted me to read the series but it offered me nothing but annoyance. Fifteen years ago I would have been all over this novel but I guess I'm an old lady now lol. The characters were flat and the story was stale. It doesn't help that I've seen the movie so I knew what was going to happen. I truly don't recommend..... But I'm signed up to read the next two in the series so I pray that the story picks up a notch or two! ( )

I have not slept.
Between the acting of a dreadful thing
And the first motion, all the interim is
Like a phantasm, or a hideous dream:
The genius and the mortal instruments
Are then in council; and the state of man,
Like to a little kingdom, suffers then
The nature of an insurrection.
- William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar
I sung of Chaos and Eternal Night,
Taught by the heav'nly Muse to venture down
The dark decent, and up to reascend. . .
- John Milton, Paradise Lost
Facilis descensus Averni:
Noctes antque dies patet atri ianua Ditis.
Sed grandium revocare superasque evadere ad auras;
Hoc opus, hic labor, est.
- Virgil, The Aeneid
The descent beckons
as the ascent beckoned.
- William Carlos Williams, The Descent

"Sarcasm is the last refuge of the imaginatively bankrupt," she told him. "I can't help it. I use my rapier wit to hide my inner pain." "Your pain will be outer soon if you don't get out of traffic. Are you trying to get run over by a cab?" "Don't be ridiculous," he said. "We could never get a cab that easily in this neighborhood."
"Is this the part where you start tearing off strips of your shirt to bind my wounds?" "If you wanted me to rip my clothes off, you should have just asked."
"If you were half as funny as you think you are, you'd be twice as funny as you are now."
"Jesus!" Luke exclaimed. "Actually, it's just me," said Simon. "Although I've been told the resemblance is startling."
"Unfortunately", said Hodge, "we're all out of bitter revenge at the moment, so it's either tea or nothing."

Her stomach dropped out from under her as the silver river spun away and the spires of the bridge slid under her feet, but this time Clary kept her eyes open, so that she could see it all.
