In this second installment of the Mortal Instruments series, the story only continues to get better. It is once again action from beginning to end. There is no part of this book that is boring.
Valentine is back and even more evil than before. The Mortal Cup is not enough for him, and now he is after the Mortal Sword. Jace is under suspicion of spying for Valentine and the Inquisitor is brought in to investigate. She has her own agenda though, and the lure of revenge is is stronger than common sense. Clary continues to learn more about her mother and the world of the Shadowhunters. The relationship between her and Jace continues to be a struggle for both of them. It is a true beauty and tragedy. They also learn some secrets about themselves that help change the game. Simon plays a bigger role in this book. It is actually more annoying than enjoyable.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I love this series. I started the third book as soon as I was finished with this one. Clary seems to get a little more clueless as the story goes on and I don't enjoy that fact. She has her moments where she is normal, but sometimes she deserves a smack in the face. I love how every book opens the story up more and more, and not just a little bit. There are so many new pieces introduced at every turn. I love this series!
