Cassandra Clare's Infernal Devices series is one of
the best
series I have read. The story lines are gripping and hold
your interest page by page. Her world of Tessa, Will, and
Jem is fascinating! If you haven't read her Infernal
Devices
or Mortal Instruments Series, you need to! They are both
excellent!

kidnapped by the villainous Mortmain in his final bid for
power, the London Institute rallies to save her, but is
beset by danger and betrayal at every turn.

If the only way to save the world was to destroy what you
loved most, would you do it?
The clock is ticking. Everyone must choose.
Passion. Power. Secrets. Enchantment.
Danger closes in around the Shadowhunters in the final
