After struggeling to accept the fact that Jace and Clary are brother and sister, I found myself, hesitating to turn each page. But after the initial shock, I resumbed to read just as thirstily as before. I found that this one in the series, had the biggest growth, Clary seems to become accepted into the world more freely. The book endures some huge changes. **SPOILERS** For example, Simon, changing into a vampire - that was the biggest one of me. My favourite part of the whole book, and possibly most inspiration piece of writting I read of the three books, was in here. The faery kindom part. The trickery of Clary licking the juices off her fingers, not realising that she has been trapped. And her onnly means of escape, is a kiss..."The fay will find the thing you most desire, and with a sting of a tail, you'd wished you never thought of it." Crushing Simon as he kisses her, and she is still not free. "She needs the kiss she desires most." And although I found the queen evil, I silently thanked her as I turned the page, hoping for another kiss between Jace and Clary - I wasn't disapointed. "It doesn't mean anything" - Jace says, but it's clear that's not true - and I think he was trying to convince himsself. The other part I find really brillaint is the part where Jace is locked in the runed prison, and he has to fly (leap) out of it, and I pray and pray, each time I read it, that he makes it - even though I know he must. The battle of the book, is brilliant. It's very agonising to read though, I was terrified that a charcater should die, Alec, or Simon, Isabelle, Mia or Clary - and I struggle to think the last name, Jace. It is clear that things are not all they seem between the siblings, both have special abbilities. All is not as it seems when Jace's life is saved, by the Inquisistor - who 'supposedly' hate him - the last words she says to him are "Your father would be proud of you" - which was a huge piece of a twisted jigsaw. All I can say is that by the end of the book I was heaving from excitment for the next intallment.
