City of Ashes

by Cassandra Clare
Review by Zoe Jardine

City of Ashes is the sequel to City of Bones [which I previously reviewed].  It is also one of my favourite books.  It is full of adventure and drama.  Jace and Clary are trying to free their mother and they still like each other.  That's not the best set-up.  Simon also likes Clary and Clary, kind of, likes him back.  It is an adventure-packed love triangle.
Simon and Clary start going out because Clary won't admit her true feelings for Jace.  When Simon breaks into a vampire's lair, it all goes downhill.  (Spoiler alert!)  Jace gets arrested and Simon turns into a vampire.  The Inquisitor, a very powerful Shadowhunter, tries to trade Jace to Valentine.  When Jace breaks out to help Clary, Valentine strikes.
