You hurt when they hurt, love when they love, learn what they learn these characters become your universe. As a reader, you can’t help but feel for the characters. We had the goofy, the wise, the nerds, the warriors – and everything in between. It’s dangerously easy to fall into her world and it’s much harder to find your way out, especially when you have to stop reading for the day/night.Īlso, the cast of characters she had brought in a dynamic mix for the reader. I think that’s why I love her books, and this one, so much – because I can picture all the events happening without a thought. There is no questioning where her world beings and where reality ends because it flows together so beautifully. It’s a lot like Harry Potter, in that way. Her world layers nicely over the reality that we live in and it just works. After seven days and countless hours of reading, I finally finished it at one in the morning today.Ĭassie’s world and writing is breathtaking. Although usually it only takes me two days to read one of her books, I was happy to take my time with her story. When I finally got it in my hands, I felt excitement and happiness settle into my core and it stayed there as I burned through the pages of the book. Glitz, glamours, and Shadowhunters abound in this heartrending opening to Cassandra Clare’s Dark Artifices series.Īs an opening book to a brand new trilogy, Cassandra Clare killed it. Can he ever truly return to them? Will the faeries really allow it? But time works differently in faerie, so Mark has barely aged and doesn’t recognize his family. The faeries are desperate to find out who is murdering their kind-and they need the Shadowhunters’ help to do it. Making things even more complicated, Julian’s brother Mark-who was captured by the faeries five years ago-has been returned as a bargaining chip. If only her heart didn’t lead her in treacherous directions… Together with her parabatai Julian Blackthorn, Emma must learn to trust her head and her heart as she investigates a demonic plot that stretches across Los Angeles, from the Sunset Strip to the enchanted sea that pounds the beaches of Santa Monica. Emma Carstairs is no longer a child in mourning, but a young woman bent on discovering what killed her parents and avenging her losses. It’s been five years since the events of City of Heavenly Fire that brought the Shadowhunters to the brink of oblivion. The Shadowhunters of Los Angeles star in the first novel in Cassandra Clare’s newest series, The Dark Artifices, a sequel to the internationally bestselling Mortal Instruments series.
