Critic reviews

"Hugely anticipated." ( The Bookseller)

"The Mortal Instruments series is a story world that I love to live in. Beautiful." (Stephenie Meyer)

Amazing!

I loved the Shadow World!! And all of the couples. Clace Sizzy Malec etc... but the girl was creepy

It was good but could have been great

For all those that read Grant Cartright butchered this audio book, please note that he didnt do a tereible job. He just didnt put on a performance equivalent to that which was in book 5.

But its not just that. The audio technician or editor didnt do a great job either as you can hear each narator swallow, lip smack among other unusual sounds u dont expect to hear with a quality audio book. Noises that are distracting and break immersion when listening via headphones.

So is this worth listening to?
Yes
Is it entertaining?
Yes
Could the performance been better?
Yes.

Enjoy.

Remarkably beautiful and bbitter sweet.

Anything I write does not do justice to the months spent reading the world Cassandra has created through the inferno devices and Immortal instruments. I never knew what to expect when pressing the play button on Clockwork Angel and again for City of Bones. Completely blown away and pleasantly surprised each time. A huge bar has been set and it’ll be difficult to find a new series that can measure up. I’ll miss the Harendales, Lightwoods, Fairchilds, Simon and Magness plus the many who played a part in such an stunning read…, well definitely not Sebastian. That dude creeps me out and gave me nightmares. For every truly good comes the deeply evil. It’s kinda sad and bitter sweet to say goodbye. Goes to show how great of an author Cassandra is to create such characters yu come to love, hate and be irritated by. I laughed, cried, nearly punched the player and cheered over and over. Brilliant night time reading! Looking forwad to Emma’s story in the upcoming series The Dark Artifices. Yeah!!!

love love love!!!

I love all Cassandra Clare's books. I can never put them down!! And can't wait for more books from her!!! <3

Mediocre story, terrible reading.

Teenagers acting like they know everything is nothing new and no less annoying to me just because they're in a fantasy novel. the romance would have been a lot more believable had the characters been a few years older at least, as it is I personally find it quite cringe. The worst part by far throughout the series, however, has been the reading. I wonder if the author ever bothered listening and giving her input at all. Terrible "accents", butchering of foreign languages and no idea if it's ste-leh (star) or stee-lee (column). I couldn't even get to the end of the book before reviewing so frustrated I am by it. Shame, there was potential behind the idea but the execution did not hit the mark.
