Pubblicato da Unknown alle 02:55


The Mortal Instruments is a series of six fantasy novels, written by Cassandra Clare.
The first novel is called "City of bones" and the story takes place in an urban and contemporary New York City.

Plot

A teenager, Clary Fray, begins seeing a strange symbol, worrying her mother, Jocelyn Fray, and her mother's friend, Luke Garroway.
Later, at a nightclub with her friend Simon, Clary is the only person who sees Jace Wayland killing a man.
Meanwhile, Jocelyn is abducted by two men, but she is able to call Clary and warn her about someone named Valentine and she drinks a potion putting her in a comatose state.
Returning home, Clary is attacked by a demon, but Jace appears and kills it.
Jocelyn, like Jace, was also a Shadowhunter, a warrior that slays demons.

Madame Dorothea, the Fray's neighbor and a witch, deduces that the two men seek the Mortal Cup, one of the tree Mortal Instruments given to the first Shadowhunter by the Angel Raziel.

Clary, Jace and Simone go to the Institute, the Shadowhunter's hideout, where they meet other two Shadowhunters:Alec and Isabelle Lightwood and their leader, Hodge Starkweather.
He reveals that Valentine seek the Mortal Cup to control all Shadowhunters and demons.
Hodge instructs Jace to take Clary to the City of Bones so the Silent Brothers can probe Clary's mind for the Mortal Cup's location. The Brothers uncover a connection to Magnus Bane, the High Warlock of Brooklyn.
Bane says Jocelyn had him block the Shadowhunter world from Clary's mind. 

After that, Clary realizes  the Mortal Cup is hidden inside one of Madame Dorothea's tarot cards what were painted by her mother.
The group goes to Dorothea's apartment but she has been replaced by a demon sent to steal the Cup. Simon and Jace kill it and Clary retrieves the Mortal Cup.
Clary gives the Mortal Cup to Hodge who betrays them by summoning Valentine Morgenstern and giving him the cup. Valentine reveals he is Clary's father and wants her to join him.

Clary and Jace fight Valentine, who falsely claims both are his children. They refuse to join him and, following a battle, Clary pushes him through the portal after giving him a fake Mortal Cup. The portal is destroyed, and Jocelyn is rescued, but she remains in a coma at the hospital.

Then, Clary uses her new-found powers to repair the apartment and Jace appears, confessing he needs her. Realizing she belongs in the Shadowhunter world, she goes with him.
