Publisher's summary

To save her mother's life, Clary must travel to the City of Glass, the ancestral home of the Shadowhunters -- never mind that enter-ing the city without permission is against the Law, and breaking the Law could mean death.

To make things worse, she learns that Jace does not want her there, and Simon has been thrown in prison by the Shadowhunters, who are deeply suspicious of a vampire who can withstand sunlight.

As Clary uncovers more about her family's past, she finds an ally in mysterious Shadow-hunter Sebastian. With Valentine mustering the full force of his power to destroy all Shadow-hunters forever, their only chance to defeat him is to fight alongside their eternal enemies. But can Downworlders and Shadowhunters put aside their hatred to work together? While Jace realizes exactly how much he's willing to risk for Clary, can she harness her newfound powers to help save the Glass City -- whatever the cost?

Love is a mortal sin and the secrets of the past prove deadly as Clary and Jace face down Valentine in the final installment of the New York Times best-selling trilogy The Mortal Instruments.

Listen to the rest of the Mortal Instruments series.

Love this series! STILL!!

My only complaint is words being mispronounced. Otherwise, it's still just as good as the first time I read the story!

I nice listen

Story was really good and the narrator did a great job at keeping it captivating. Although it is slightly sad, it had many good plots.

I love this series

The narrator did pretty well. There were some mispronunciations that bothered me. But what I didn't like was that her character voice inflections didn't match the described feeling. It kind of threw me out of the story sometimes. Other than that, I liked her voices. She did enough to make them feel separate. and most of the time you could tell who was talking without having to hear the name.

I started reading this series in high school and stopped after this book, so I'm excited to be able to listen to the rest since I don't have time to sit down and read it.

love it!

I loved the story. The narrator was really good for most of the voices. I just didn't like the way she voiced Jace. All the other voices were great though in my opinion.

Good

I still enjoy this series, but I forgot how annoying Jace was about Clary at first! Sigh. My memory of their romance was that it was pretty epic and it's just not to me anymore.

Still fantastic writing and a great world with well-rounded characters!

Disappointing

Reader is different from the first two books, reads very slowly. Shift is difficult to make for us. Our daughter is switching to reading instead. Not a bad thing, but a bummer in the car.

AWESOME!!!

I have been waiting on pins and needles for the final installment on this series. And Cassandra Clare definitely delivers. She has so many plot twists and shocks, that continues in this book. Action packed and brilliant. Definitely not a disappointment, I am just sorry this is the last one. I fell in love with her characters and wish to read more about them. She could definitely be ranked up there with JK Rowling on her brilliant ideas and shocking plot twists. I even bought the books on hardcover because I loved them so much!
