This book is a fantactic, and magical book.


It is a mix of many different genres and themes, and would appeal to just about annyone who loves to read!


It tells a story of many supernatural beings and their lives, the rivalry between many different people, and an endless love, like most books, cannot be, or is nearly imposible.


It is an amazingly thrilling book, and is nearly imposible to put down. It will keep you at the edge of your seats, and is the most amazing start, to a fantastic series.


PLEASE READ! because i know you will enjoy!

City of Bones is an awesome book - it had me hooked pretty much instantly. I couldn't put it down, but I didn't want it to end! This is a great book for anyone who loves stories with dark magic. Although the ending: Star Wars, anyone? Darth Vader:Valentine, Luke Skywalker: Jace, Leia: Clary. Simon is sort of like Han Solo. Even still, an awesome book, and can't wait to read the rest of the series.
