Praise for The Mortal Instruments;
Fans of... Buffy the Vampire Slayer will instantly fall for this series Publishers Weekly
The perfect young adult novel. The tale of a shadowy underworld of elegant half-angel demons hunters in New York is thrilling. It's romantic. The pages fly by. The characters leap off the page and into your heart. I aspire to write like this. And I want to fight like a Shadow Hunter -- CJ Daugherty The Big Issue
