I just finished reading
City of Glass by Cassandra Clare. I have to say that I am quite impressed with the three books in this series. I love the idea of the world in which all of these creatures exist. I also am always impressed when as a reader I have absolutely no clue in the middle of the book how things will possibly work out for the characters in the book. Throughout this series there is a tension between the main characters that is both intense and realistic. There are so many twists in the plot lines but each time it seems that the story must have been meant to go that way. I love that this third book in the trilogy so neatly wraps up the story but does so in an unexpected way which at the same time made me say..."I
knew it." Anybody who is enjoying all the great fantasy series out there will enjoy this fast-paced series of books.
Along these same lines, I saw that Clare has started a new series. Reading
Clockwork Angel was similar to reading
City of Bones. There are a lot of parallels in the stories and it will be interesting to see where the plot line goes in the other books. I, for one, was glad to see that this talented author is writing more about the fascinating world of the Shadowhunters. The fact that the new series is set in nineteenth century England was also quite intriguing.
