Don’t get me wrong, the rich historical setting and the pulse-pounding action and suspense is top notch but the elaborate plot from The Mortal Instruments definitely trumps it. But the main reason is that the plot alone won’t be what compels you to continue with the series. First one being these are not standalone books and they tell a full, continuous story so talking about some details would spoil the books. Though this is a series review, I don’t plan on talking much about the plot for a few reasons.
After such an emotional reading journey, how can I possibly pick up another book and expect to move on? I can’t, and there is no book that can save me from this book hangover.
It’s true these books broke my heart, but in the best way possible: not by wearing it down but by filling it with so much love for these characters it bursts. Yet it’s not a reading experience I would ever change. It is both a blessing and a curse to have read these books for I will always have this eternal ache in my heart that can never be soothed, names such as Tessa, Will, and Jem will immediately remind me of these characters and the tears will well fast. My puny heart just wasn’t made to process a story so epic and grand such as this one. We've listed all the Shadowhunters books below, but if you enjoy the genre you might also want to read one of our favourite YA fantasy books, too.No matter how much I thought I was emotionally prepared to take on this series, I wasn’t. Love, lies, corruption, danger and secrets are all perfectly encapsulated in this action-packed fantasy YA series, full of twists and turns to make for another sensational chapter in the Shadowhunters' world. Both Shadowhunters, both in love with her. All while trying to understand who she truly loves, Will or Jem. She will find protection in the Shadowhunters, a band of warriors dedicated to ridding the world of demons and slowly uncovers a surprising past she never thought could be hers. On her journey to find him, she discovers her ability to shape-shift, and this is where her story begins. Tessa Gray, a young orphan, only has one hope: to find her lost brother. Under the hustle and bustle of Victorian London, Downworld's vampires, warlocks and other supernatural folk stalk the gaslit streets.
Following YA Fantasy success of The Mortal Instruments series by Casandra Clare, this is the prequel epic Shadowhunters chapter set in Victorian London of the 1800s starring Tessa Gray.
