Clary Fray just wishes that her life would go back to normal. But what's normal when you're a demon-slaying Shadowhunter, your mother is in a magically induced coma, and you can suddenly see Downworlders like werewolves, vampires, and faeries? If Clary left the world of the Shadowhunters behind, it would mean more time with her best friend, Simon, who's becoming more than a friend. But the Shadowhunting world isn't ready to let her go — especially her handsome, infuriating, newfound brother, Jace. And Clary's only chance to help her mother is to track down rogue Shadowhunter Valentine, who is probably insane, certainly evil — and also her father. To complicate matters, someone in New York City is murdering Downworlder children. Is Valentine behind the killings — and if he is, what is he trying to do? When the second of the Mortal Instruments, the Soul-Sword, is stolen, the terrifying Inquisitor arrives to investigate and zooms right in on Jace. How can Clary stop Valentine if Jace is willing to betray everything he believes in to help their father? In this breathtaking sequel to City of Bones, Cassandra Clare lures her readers back into the dark grip of New York City's Downworld, where love is never safe and power becomes the deadliest temptation

Gut aussehend, düster und sexy. Das ist Jace. Verwirrt, verletzlich und vollkommen ahnungslos. So fühlt sich Clary, als sie in Jaces Welt hineingezogen wird. Denn Jace ist kein normaler Junge. Er ist ein Dämonenjäger. Und als Clary von dunklen Kreaturen angegriffen wird, muss Clary schleunigst ein paar Antworten findet, sonst wird die Geschichte ein tödliches Ende nehmen!

The Mortal War is over, and sixteen-year-old Clary Fray is back home in New York, excited about all the possibilities before her. She's training to become a Shadowhunter and — most importantly of all — she can finally call Jace her boyfriend. But nothing comes without a price. Someone is murdering the Shadowhunters who used to be in Valentine's Circle, provoking tensions between Downworlders and Shadowhunters that could lead to a second, bloody war. And when Jace begins to pull away from her without explaining why, Clary is forced to delve into the heart of a mystery whose solution reveals her worst nightmare: she herself has set in motion a terrible chain of events that could lead to her losing everything she loves. Even Jace

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 bestselling trilogy The Mortal Instruments

Sebastian Morgenstern is on the move, systematically turning Shadowhunter against Shadowhunter. Bearing the Infernal Cup, he transforms Shadowhunters into creatures out of nightmare, tearing apart families and lovers as the ranks of his Endarkened army swell. The embattled Shadowhunters withdraw to Idris—but not even the famed demon towers of Alicante can keep Sebastian at bay. And with the Nephilim trapped in Idris, who will guard the world against demons? When one of the greatest betrayals the Nephilim have ever known is revealed, Clary, Jace, Isabelle, Simon, and Alec must flee—even if their journey takes them deep into the demon realms, where no Shadowhunter has set foot before, and from which no human being has ever returned... Love will be sacrificed and lives lost in the terrible battle for the fate of the word in the thrilling final installment of the classic urban fantasy series The Mortal Instruments!

Clary Fray desearía que su vida volviera a la normalidad.

Cuando la adolescente de quince años, Clary Fray, entra en el Pandemonium Club, en la ciudad de Nueva York, difícilmente podía imaginarse que terminaría siendo testigo de un asesinato, y mucho menos de un asesinato cometido por tres adolescentes con extraños tatuajes y extrañas armas. Clary sabe que debe avisar a la policía, pero es difícil explicar un asesinato cuando el cuerpo desaparece en el aire, sin dejar ni siquiera una gota de sangre, y los asesinos son invisibles para todo el mundo, salvo para ella… Este es su primer encuentro con los Shadowhunters (Cazadores de Sombras), guerreros dedicados a erradicar a los demonios de la tierra, es también su primer encuentro con Jace, un cazador que luce como un ángel pero se comporta como un idiota… En veinticuatro horas Clary se ve envuelta por el mundo de Jace con una venganza, porque su madre ha desaparecido y fue atacada por un demonio. Pero… ¿por qué los demonios estarían interesados en personas comunes como Clary y su madre? ¿Y cómo de repente Clary consigue la Vista? A los Cazadores les encantaría saberlo.

Jace es ahora un sirviente del mal, vinculado a Sebastian por toda la eternidad. Sólo un pequeño grupo de Cazadores de Sombras cree posible su salvación. Para lograrla, deben desafiar al Cónclave, y deben actuar sin Clary. Porque Clary está jugando a un juego muy peligroso por su propia cuenta y riesgo. Si pierde, el precio que deberá pagar no consiste tan solo en entregar su vida, sino también el alma de Jace. Clary está dispuesta a hacer lo que sea por Jace, pero ¿puede seguir confiando en él? ¿O lo ha perdido para siempre? ¿Es el precio a pagar demasiado alto, incluso para el amor?

Este libro, escrito por Cassandra Clare, es el cuarto de la colección de Los Instrumentos Mortales. Es mucho más detallista que los anteriores y el final es espectacular pese a que hace visible que no es el último libro de la colección. Tiene de todo y te engancha desde el principio hasta el final, y es segun mi punto de vista incluso mejor que los anteriores. Contiene mucho misterio, acción, emoción y sentimiento, y está escrito de una manera que mezcla en uno la curiosidad y el sentimiento. Te hace sentir las cosas como si fueses uno de los protagonistas. Jace y Clary sin duda vuelven a acaparar la atención del lector, pero en ningun momento el libro se hace cansino o soso. Si os habeis leido los libros anteriores descubrireis que este es mucho mejor, y si os gusta os recomiendo que os leais "Shadow Web" de N.M. Browne. Son los dos libros escritos, sobre todo, para chicas jóvenes y recomiendo fuertemente que sean leidos en su idioma original: el ingles. El título original de "Ciudad de Ángeles Caidos" es "City of Fallen Angels" y merece la pena leerlo (es uno de los mejores libros de su estilo), sobre todo en ingles aunque en español no le falta la emoción, etc, del original; pero en España saldrá dentro de, más o menos, un año. Espero que os guste ya que a mi me ha encantado
