Sixteen-year-old
Clary Fray is an ordinary teenager, who likes hanging out in Brooklyn
with her friends. But everything changes the night she witnesses a
murder, committed by a group of teens armed with medieval weaponry. The
murderous group are Shadowhunters, secret warriors dedicated to driving
demons out of this dimension and back into their own. Drawn inexorably
into a terrifying world, Clary slowly begins to learn the truth about
her family – and the battle for the fate of the world.
City of Ashes
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.
City Glass
This
title is the third and final instalment in the bestselling urban gothic
fantasy sequence, “The Mortal Instruments”. With two of the Mortal
Instruments now in Valentine’s hands, the world of the Shadowhunters
teeters on the brink of civil war. Jace and the Lightwoods are recalled
to Idris, the Shadowhunters’ remote and hidden home country, where a
search has begun for the last of the Instruments, the Mortal Glass.
Clary finds herself caught up in the chaos as the delicate social order
of the Nephilim begins to shatter, pitting Downworlder against
Downworlder and Shadowhunters against each other. When the City of Glass
falls under attack, can Downworlders and Nephilim fight together to
defeat Valentine, or will their longstanding hatred destroy them all?
And when Clary discovers the unbelievable truth about her own past, can
she find Jace before it’s too late?
City of Fallen Angels
The
Mortal War is over, and sixteen-year-old Clary Fray is back home in New
York, excited about all the possibilities before her. She’s training to
become a Shadowhunter and most importantly of all she can finally call
Jace her boyfriend. But nothing comes without a price. Someone is
murdering the Shadowhunters who used to be in Valentine’s Circle,
provoking tensions between Downworlders and Shadowhunters that could
lead to a second, bloody war. And when Jace begins to pull away from her
without explaining why, Clary is forced to delve into the heart of a
mystery whose solution reveals her worst nightmare: she herself has set
in motion a terrible chain of events that could lead to her losing
everything she loves. Even Jace.
Clockwork Angel
Magic
is dangerous – but love is more dangerous still… When sixteen-year-old
Tessa Gray arrives in England during the reign of Queen Victoria,
something terrifying is waiting for her in London’s Downworld, where
vampires, warlocks and other supernatural folk stalk the gaslit streets.
Friendless and hunted, Tessa seeks refuge with the Shadow hunters, a
band of warriors dedicated to ridding the world of demons. Drawn ever
deeper into their world, she finds herself fascinated by – and torn
between – two best friends and quickly realizes that love may be the
most dangerous magic of all.
