The Mortal Instruments Series

Cassandra Clare
City of Bones
Simon Pulse: 2007

Book One
Clary has begun to see things that others can't see and witnesses a murder. The bizarre thing is that the body disappears before her eyes. She finds out that there are Shadowhunters, warriors trained to kill demons that inhabit the earth. When one of the demons attempts to kill Clary, she starts to discover that her life is not what she thought it is. With her mother kidnapped by the evil Valentine, Clary sets out to find the Mortal Cup in order to bargain for her mother's life with the help of Jace, a Shadowhunter, and Simon, her human bestfriend.

Filled with lots of twists, this story is perfect for fantasy lovers. Werewolves, warlocks, and vampires are just a few of the characters that fill the pages with bloody battles. Like me, you'll want to read Book Two to see what happens next!
