To save her mother's life, Clary must travel to the City of Glass, the ancestral home of the Shadowhunters—never mind that entering 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 Shadowhunter Sebastian. With Valentine mustering the full force of his power to destroy all Shadowhunters 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?

In the third installment of this hip fantasy trilogy, Clary must use her untested abilities to battle her father, the demon Valentine; save her ancestral home; and help her dying mother. A group of Shadowhunters, vampires, werewolves, and fairies must come together to wage a final epic battle. Natalie Moore narrates with appropriate pacing and tone, allowing the listener to follow the story's various threads and easily visualize the settings. She reads clearly and with fluency, voicing the characters consistently. She also captures the emotional struggles of her characters such as the tense dialogue between Clary and her uncertain love interest (and possible brother), Jace. Moore's narration keeps the listener engaged with this modern fantasy. J.K.R. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
