Synopsis:

Clary Fray would like your life again normal. If I could leave behind the world of shadows hunters would have more time to Simon, his best friend, who is becoming more ... But the underworld who has just discovered is not ready to let go, especially the handsome, exasperating Jace. To complicate matters, a wave of murders rocks the city. Clary believes that Valentine is behind these deaths, but how can arrest if Jace seems willing to betray everything he believes in to help his father?

In this superb sequel to City of Bones, Cassandra Clare draws readers back to the sinister clutches of the underworld of New York, where love is never safe and power becomes the deadliest temptation.

personal opinion:

To that end so desperate city of bone not hesitate to buy the sequel (town ash) as soon as I get to bookstores, devour in less than two days, and it is good to find books like these that force you to keep reading regardless of your other needs, or responsibilities. So, forget the outside world, you run out of breath and die slowly as we near the end. Surprisingly addictive!

Without Spoilers:

This book improved and surpassed the first film, which does not happen very often, as you already know the characters and the story is very easy to enter the book in the first moment and let go the pages, oblivious of time. The characters grow, develop and make more important that previously had none. There are some new history give the touch to make this book A superb sequel of bone city as stated in the synopsis.

I have lived an incredible adventure, along with all the characters I entered a fantasy world that has much to offer, this book has more of everything: More action, more love, more Mystery, suspense , and highlighting the latest, has a lot of blood (local author) blood everywhere, really Cassandra must have an obsession with her.

We get to know more to Valentine and purposes he has. The story evolves and presents another perspective of what we saw in the first book.

Simon has to go through something very difficult, but gives him and his life needed maturity the character develops much and find "their place" in this whole new world . In contrast, Jace and Clary or advance or retreat, your relationship is stagnant and not progress in least, continue with the same conflicts and when they finally think that their relationship progressed, something happens that stops everything.

Clary is starting to show some interest in Simon, but we know from the first moment that the intention of Cassandra is that they are together, so that poor Simon will have to suffer because of Clary.

various creatures start to die, but Clary suspect the deaths are not random and that there is a purpose behind them. This is what gives mystery to the story. There are scenes too bloody deaths that cause pain and despair to the reader, a book is very strong compared to the first.

found to have blood Clary Nephilim means more things he believed authorities would ever imagine.

As we near the end you find out what death meant and that Valentine has a purpose for them. Going to suffer, mourn, cry, laugh, falling off the chair and more even in a single scene!

This book exceeded the bad things the first, and became a plus, liked me too, so I have no words to explain. The end totally frustrated me, everything went smoothly and was confident that the author would give us a final happy medium, but NO, it ends badly, badly, is somewhat disappointing that after all, not a spark of happiness, but Cassandra certainly have a purpose for everything.

So, without saying more, you should read, sure you liked it and become one of your favorite books
