The Mortal Instruments trilogy tells the tale of Clary, a young woman whose world is turned upside down when her mother suddenly disappears. She discovers that she and her mother are Shadowhunters, descendants of Angels who fight demons.
City of Ashes, the second instalment in the series, finds Clary struggling with her emotions for Jace, given the revelation that he is her brother. Add to that the arrival of an Iquisitor who is convinced that Jace is guilty of working with their father, who is trying to bring down the clave, and you have an excting story.
Author Cassandra Clarke continues her creative world building with reinvisioning of the vampire, wereworlf, fairy and warlock mythos stirred in for levening. There is also an exploration of the real meaning of parenthood, as seen through Jace’s relationship with the Lightwoods who raised him and Clary’s relationship with the Shadowhunter turned wereworlf Luke. Worth the time.
