City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare
So I knew a fourth book was coming out, but from what I thought it was the last book and written from Simon's view from a past book. Nope, I was wrong. Yes, it is written from multiple points of view, which I have begun to really like for most books now. It is nice to get the perspective of multiple main characters instead of only knowing one main characters feelings and experiences. However, after reading this book I have to come realize that this series is going to continue furthur. Once again I am stuck reading a series that I have to wait years to finish.
So anyway... The war is over, but life goes on for everyone. Simon is trying to come to terms with his daywalker vampire self and living longer than everyone else. Clary is trying to train to become a Shadowhunter and Jace is still is cocky self, however, he is being manipulated by a demon and losing control over his actions. We don't see much of Alec and Magnus since they are vacationing around the world, but we do see at the end that Alec is having to come to terms with Magnus's past relationships and him being a relationship at the time that will end with him dying and Magnus moving on. Isabel is still her self-centered self, but she is starting to realize that she wants/needs a steady, serious relationship and it seems that may be with Simon. So there you have it summed up within a few sentences. Pretty much Sabastian is brought back to life and Jace is controlled by him. It is nice to see that this set up forces all the other characters to take some more main parts in the upcoming books since Jace is unable to protect and save everyone. Everyone is now going to have to fight against him as well as Sabastian while also trying to keep Jace alive. A crazy twist I'm interested to see how is solved.
