A prequel to the bestselling Mortal Instruments series
Magic is dangerous but love is more dangerous still... When sixteen-year-old Tessa Gray arrives in England during the reign of Queen Victoria, something terrifying is waiting for her in London's Downworld, where vampires, warlocks and other supernatural fold stalk the gaslit streets. Friendless and hunted, Tessa seeks refuge with the Shadowhunters, a band of warriors dedicated to ridding the world of demons. Drawn ever deeper into their world, she finds herself fascinated by and torn between two best friends and quickly realizes that love may be the most dangerous magic of all.
Clockwork Angel
I've heard many people give some pretty good reviews about Cassandra Clare's works. Indeed, my friend is currently obsessed with the Mortal Instruments but this is the first time I have actually read any of her books and might I say, it really was amazing. Clockwork Angel has a very intriguing, thought-out plot with brilliant character development. The characters were down-to-earth, real and each had their own back story that made them who they are. Altogether a brilliant read, I look forward to reading more of her novels and further into the world of the Shadowhunters. Five star quality. Reviewed by Melissa Finger
