Review for The Mortal Instruments

 I spent at least 3 hours straight reading one of the 4 books in the Mortal Instruments series. The books were so interesting that I read them all in a week! The books are about a girl named Clary who discovers that there is a magical, invisible world hidden all around the world that we know. Vampires, werewolves, fearies, warlocks, and demons are all magical beings that live in the same world we do. But sometimes they cause trouble in our world and thats where the shadowhunters come in. Shadowhunters kill demons and keep peace between the other mythical beings.

  In the books, one shadowhunter, particularly Clary's father she never knew, plans to rid the world of all mythical beings or downworlders. But later he decides to that he wants to get rid of the shadowhunters so he can take over to mythical world. To do this he must collect all 3 mortal instruments and perform a ritual. Clary and her shadowhunter friends must stop him before he gets all the instruments.

  In the books, the author Cassandra Clare invents this extraordinary world with shocking surprises at every turn that will keep your interest  even after you finish the book. Even though some of the things in the book are disturbing like gay relationships, demons, and sexual references, over all the book is an amazing thriller adventure story. Perfectly plotted and full of action, I think the author is a genius who includes something for everyone in her books. This book series is one that I highly recommend for teens and adults. When you read the books you will not be disappointed.

 The books where so good that I took them everywhere and read them all day. These books are like the best books I ever read because I like adventure and mystery.

  Cassandra Clare has not yet completed her series, so you might have to wait for the 5th book but I think the wait will be worth it. Her website is under maintenance right now so if your interested in the books there is always the book store. photo by:bitmask
