In this trilogy, Cassandra Clare reveals a dark side of New York City - one filled with underworld demons disguised as ordinary people just looking to have a little fun with NY's unwitting citizens.
Thankfully, there are people to protect us from them - the Shadowhunters. Mostly human with a touch of angel thrown in for good measure, these skillful warriors are protecting us from the demons, as well as keeping an uneasy peace with the Vampires, Werewolves, Faeries and Warlocks of the world. And, oh yeah, the most talented one? Is a teenager named Jace Wayland.
Clary meets Jace, and his "siblings" Alec and Isabelle Lightwood, at a teenclub but has no clue about this seedy underworld at work in her very own city until her artist mother Jocelyn goes missing and her mother's best friend Luke starts acting a bit, well, wolfy.
From there the adventure begins. If you loved Twilight, check this trilogy out. You won't be sorry you did.
Note: For some reason, in the picture above which was taken frome the author's website, the books are listed backwards. The actual order of the series is:
City of Bones
City of Ashes
City of Glass
Happy reading!
PS - If you like the books, or if you just like meeting authors, Cassandra Clare is doing a book signing at Books of Wonder in NYC on Sunday, April 5 at 1 PM. Other authors attending: Lisa McMann (author of Wake and Fade) and Elizabeth Scott!
