City of Lost Souls

Simon and Schuster, May 8, 2012 - JUVENILE FICTION - 544 pages
Don't miss The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones, soon to be a major motion picture in theaters August 2013.

The New York Times bestselling Mortal Instruments continues—and so do the thrills and danger for Jace, Clary, and Simon.

What price is too high to pay, even for love? When Jace and Clary meet again, Clary is horrified to discover that the demon Lilith's magic has bound her beloved Jace together with her evil brother Sebastian, and that Jace has become a servant of evil. The Clave is out to destroy Sebastian, but there is no way to harm one boy without destroying the other. As Alec, Magnus, Simon, and Isabelle wheedle and bargain with Seelies, demons, and the merciless Iron Sisters to try to save Jace, Clary plays a dangerous game of her own. The price of losing is not just her own life, but Jace's soul. She's willing to do anything for Jace, but can she still trust him? Or is he truly lost?

Love. Blood. Betrayal. Revenge. Darkness threatens to claim the Shadowhunters in the harrowing fifth book of the Mortal Instruments series.

BEFORE WE GET TO THE REVIEW, what do you think ? [a no-longer-available hot shot of Godfrey Gao] I think he's going to be cool for Magnus. I'm pretty happy with the cast--I can see JCB as Jace, unlike ... Read full review

User Review  - Carly - Goodreads

The only reason why any of these books have managed to scrape two and three stars out of me is because they have so much potential, and despite myself I do find myself devouring them quickly ... Read full review
