Finally, this prolonged series comes to an end and while I wish I could say that I’ll really miss the characters, I probably won’t. To be completely honest, I used to adore this series back when I first read it about four years ago, but I feel like it no longer has the same appeal as it once did. I’m pretty sure I only picked this book up out of habit
The biggest issue I had with this book was that the characters focus on the wrong things. The world is basically coming to an end and instead of caring about that, most of the characters seemed concerned with their love lives. Thank goodness there was no Clary and Jace drama, I don’t think I could ever take more of that. Instead they’re mostly happy for the book, even when they’re hunting down Sebastian in the demon realms. They were kinda of sappy, but so were all the other characters. At least the characters were still sarcastic and more than once I laughed at the dialogue between the characters.
A couple characters do die, but for me it wasn’t that big of a deal. I didn’t shed a single tear for any of the characters that died in this book, but I was practically sobbing about the mentions of characters from The Infernal Devices. The deaths didn’t really serve a purpose other than to kill off a couple of characters because it didn’t really seem to move the plot forward.
The villain, Sebastian, was alright I guess. I didn’t like him all that much because I thought he was strange. At first he wants to kill all the Shadowhunters and then his plans change a great deal when Clary, Jace, and all the others, find him in the demon realms. His plans for Clary are disturbing and he’s basically an evil mastermind, but I never got the wow he’s a great villain feeling. I’m not exactly sure why, but I think it may be partially because I’m just so done with this series.
I wasn’t expecting to be blown away by this book and I wasn’t, but I still enjoyed it. I laughed, I cried, I rolled my eyes, I wanted to throw the book, but in the end it was a decent ending to a series that should have ended three books ago. If I hadn’t given up on Shadowhunter books I might be tempted to pick up the next series because the new characters are kind of adorable, but I think for now I’m done with the Shadowhunter world.
