Cassandra Clare

The Infernal Devices reaches its devastating, then beautiful, conclusion. Mortmain's clockwork army threatens every Shadowhunter, but it is the question of Will, Jem, and Tessa — and whether love can survive impossible choices — that makes this ending one of the most discussed in young adult fiction.

The London Institute is threatened with closure unless its leader can be vindicated. Will and Jem must uncover the Magister's true identity before a deadline expires — while Tessa finds her feelings for both of them becoming impossible to deny or resolve. The love triangle deepens into something that resists easy resolution.

Emma and Julian's investigation into the ritual murders leads them across the Atlantic to London and the Shadowhunter Academy, while the Cohort — a faction of Shadowhunter extremists — gains political power. The middle volume of the Dark Artifices trilogy expands the world's politics and brings back characters from across the Shadowhunter Chronicles.

Clary and Jace travel to Idris, the Shadowhunters' hidden homeland, where Valentine seeks the power to destroy all Downworlders — and a revelation about Clary's true identity changes everything she thought she knew.

Victorian London, 1878. Tessa Gray arrives from New York looking for her brother and is captured by demons. Rescued by the Shadowhunters of the London Institute, she discovers she has a rare power: she can transform into anyone she touches. Set a century before the Mortal Instruments, the Infernal Devices prequel trilogy begins here.

Los Angeles, five years after the events of City of Heavenly Fire. Emma Carstairs is a Shadowhunter obsessed with finding the truth about her parents' murders, and her parabatai Julian Blackthorn is hiding feelings for her that Shadowhunter law forbids. As a series of ritual murders echoes the killings that took Emma's parents, the first Dark Artifices novel opens a new chapter in the Shadowhunter world.

The Shadowhunter world is fracturing: the Cohort has seized control of the Clave, Emma and Julian's parabatai bond has become something that threatens to destroy them both, and an invasion from the faerie realm hangs over everything. The Dark Artifices concludes in Clare's longest single volume — 912 pages that resolve multiple series' worth of threads.

Sebastian Morgenstern's endgame unfolds as he attacks the Institutes across the world, turning Shadowhunters into his Endarkened army. Clary and her friends must descend into the demon realms to stop him — and the cost of the final confrontation will reach into the very foundation of the Shadow World.

Clary Fray must protect those she loves as Valentine prepares to raise a demon army, while the revelation about her relationship to Jace casts a shadow over everything.

Sixteen-year-old Clary Fray discovers a secret world of Shadowhunters, demons, warlocks, and vampires hidden within New York City.

Jace has disappeared — taken and bound to Sebastian Morgenstern — and Clary must go undercover to find him, pretending to join Sebastian while searching for a way to free Jace from the demonic tie that controls him. The stakes are higher than ever as Sebastian prepares to raise an army.

The Mortal War is over, but Clary and Jace's happiness is short-lived. Someone is murdering Shadowhunters and turning their bodies into weapons. As Jace struggles with dark visions that threaten his relationship with Clary, a new and terrifying enemy emerges — one whose connection to Valentine's legacy runs deeper than anyone suspected.
