This weekend I started and finished (in only 2 days!) the book The City of Lost Souls (The Mortal Instruments series book 5) by Cassandra Clare. It was absolutely without a doubt a great book-here is the full book summary, if you are looking to read this book DO NOT read this summary because I warn you-it CONTAINS SPOILERS! Don't say I didn't warn you!
Jace and Sebastian run off while under the influence of the first demon Liliths' mark which bonded Sebastian and Jace together to make them one. In every bond there is one dominant human which is Sebastian which means Jace and Sebastian are out to rid the world of Shadowhunters. Clary is frantic to find Jace and just to her luck Jace comes to her house one night and offers her the opportunity to come with him and Sebastian, Clary blindsided by love and made the rash decision to accompany them on their trip. After leaving Clary finds herself in a magical house that can transport them anywhere in the world which, owned by Sebastian, is located in Spain. Luckily Clary thought a little before leaving with Jace-she left a magical faerie ring for Simon which would allow her to keep in constant untraceable contact with him. After building much needed trust with the boys Clary realises Jace is not himself and that he is inferior to Sebastian, Jace in bonded to do Sebastian's will. Clary and the boys went to steal Adamas (the stuff they make seraph blades out of) after stealing the Adamas they took it to an Iron Sister who transformed it into a second Mortal Cup which Sebastian will use to raise an evil army of Shadowhunters. Frantic to separate Jace from Sebastian, Simon, Isabelle, Alec and Magnus try summoning Azazel who they attempt to convince him to give them a blade that will separate the boys, but that plan failed. Next Simon summons Raziel who gives him a sword in exchange for his Mark of Cain which keeps him immortal. Back in Prague Sebastian summons Lilith then he takes her blood and his which he puts in the new Mortal Cup. With Sebastian's army of 40 former Shadowhunter circle members he forces them to drink from the cup making them dark Shadowhunters who only abide to his commands. After only making 5 or so dark Shadowhunters Clary, Simon, Magnus, Alec and a Shadowhunter army portal in just in time to stop Sebastian. After a battle of epic proportion the rogue Shadowhunters lose, Sebastian escapes while the good shadowhunters win by not only winning the war but by retrieving Jace from Liliths curse bonding him to Sebastian by using the sword to sever it. After a long emotional talk Alec and Magnus split up. After a meeting with the Silent Brothers they discover that Jaces' body contains heavenly fire given off by Michaels' sword.
