I adore everything Magnus and Alec and this was a brilliant new tale, full of magic, adventure and the extravagant, hysterical, extra ways of Magnus bane. It was nice to see more of how their relationship solidified at the beginning, as in the Mortal Instrument series you didn't actually get to know what happened on "their European vacation". I can't wait to see where this series heads. The only upsetting thing with this book was their wasn't a whole lot of Chairman Meow, a vastly underrated character in my opinion. But once again, Cassie has done it again with another beautiful incredible instalment in the Shadowhunter Chronicles.
