Another fantastic book by Clare. I can’t seem to get enough! Lol
Cassandra Clare managed to suck everyone into her imagination through this series (The Mortal Instruments) the first book being- City of Bones
JACE THE SASS-MASTER AND CLARY THE BISCUIT… malec, sizzy, clace… thanks, Cassie…
I love these books, the Mortal Instruments, and I have cried with these and laughed, and this book I have cried the most. But this book was amazing, from begining to end, I could not set this down!
I loved this book. I didn’t think I could love it any more than the first five books in the series but I did. It took me way to long to start this series Highly recommend.
I waited 4 years to read this series. I wasn’t ready for it to end. The first three were so amazing and perfect and I was scared to see how the series would end. I was not disappointed at all. I cried so much reading this book, it made me feel so many things. Finishing was such a bittersweet moment because I’ve been reading and rereading the books in the series for the last 8 years. This book was perfect, it ended the Mortal Instruments series amazingly and I wouldn’t change a single thing with it. It’s a beautiful book and will always be one of my favorites.
Updated review (2/10/20): I still love Heavenly Fire. It more than makes up for Fallen Angels and Lost Souls, which I didn’t love. It’ll definitely make you feel all the feels. It’s a bittersweet ending to a captivating series. It’s my favorite series with one of my favorite couples based on a favorite non canon couple.
wow what a way to end a series
loved it so much
Amazing that’s all I have to say this book is amazing and just a warning to anyone who reads my comments.Most of my favorite books have movies and tv shows that includes the Hunger Games Twilight The Vampire Dairies .Shadowhunters
Hidden Figures The Arrowverse Marvel Power Rangers. There’s many more I’m also Bisexual and a 10 grader now so most of my books are or can have LGBTQ+ characters and couples.Or have High schoolers in them falling in love
Coming into this story I was excited after I read the Prologue. But when it got to the end I was really disappointed by some events in the Chapter “Call It Peace.” I enjoyed how the story ended in the Epilogue, with a little bit of a twist with Simon’s character. To be honest Simon and Magnus are my favorite characters. But I didn’t like how Jordan, The whole Praetor Lupus (including Woosley Scott), and Rafael all died, but really get barely a mention of their deaths.
Having read “The Infernal Devices” and being a bit disappointed in some of those characters. I did enjoy seeing the characters in “The Mortal Instruments”and understanding how those characters fit into this story.
Absolutely love with all my heart
Read whole series. Worth the read.
Loved!!
Although a bit long for my taste, this last book in the series was an adventure. There weren’t many surprises (we all knew who Sebastian was allying with) and we all knew how it was going to end. I was surprised and pleased by how it happened though. I like when authors keep secrets between characters and don’t let even the reader know what is going on. There were a few scenes that made me wonder why they were needed and an event toward the end that brought a tear to my eye. That event was slightly corrected later.
We have watched Clary and the others grow up throughout this series and this book really ended it all on a good note. There were no lingering questions and no loose ends. I loved the Infernal Devices series and liked how the author connected the two series. We got to meet new characters that captured our hearts and I look forward to continuing their story into the next series.
Favorite book of all time
I love this series!
Cassandra Clare is an amazing mastermind. The Mortal Instruments are a work of art. I love Clace and Malec their couple chemistry is amazing. This world is full of werewolf’s, wore-locks, Seelie, vampires, and Mundanes. The series gets better as you go the Shadow world of the shadow-hunters is a mystical world full of adventure that has yet to disappoint.
OMG. Great ending to the story. Final battle was great! All your characters are there and there are endings for all. I like how they dealt with Simon still being human and I loved the look into some of characters from the Infernal Decices trilogy. Must read that before this book or you will get spoiled
Major Spoilers Ahead
Okay so let me get this straight I read 6 books in this series, the last book over 700 pages and that was the ending CC gave us readers really? I have to say I am pretty disappointed in the way the whole series played out. The first 3 books were really good but I feel like the last 3 though okay lacked depth of character, and depth of the on going relationships. Maybe it’s because there was so many storylines going at once( CC could totally give JR Ward a run for her money when it comes to multiple storylines.) Whatever it was it made me feel like something was missing. For instance we have 3 major relationship going on in this series (Jace and Clary, Simon and Izzy, Alec and Magnus) and like 3 side relationships(Maia and Jordan, Luke and Jocelyn and Maryse and Robert) Now I can understand not getting deep on the side relationships, but I as a reader should feel the love between the major 3 and I didn’t. Jace and Clary I did but even their’s could have been stronger. Maybe if they had been able to be together more in the books. Simon and Izzy were a total let down. Their relationship consist of a few kisses Izzy acting like a cold jerk for 5 books then towards the end of book 6( which again is over 700 pages) them telling each other they love each other. Really? Then CC goes and takes Simons memories of Izzy and everyone else! God I was mad!
Why? There was already tons of drama in this book. Why would you be so cruel to Simon? I mean you turn him human and wipe his memories of everyone Izzy, Jace, Alec, and Clary. And Simon wasn’t the only over the top dramatic thing that happens in this book that left a bad taste in my mouth. Lets talk about Jordan….. Poor Jordan he and Maia dated and were in love back in the day. Then he gets in a fight with a guy (werewolf) gets bit and turns werewolf. Now he doesn’t know that was happening and it was causing him to be out of control. He was abusive to Maia and then he bites and turns her. All bad stuff. Okay so when he turns he finds help and trains to become like the person who helped him. Trains to keep other newly turned wolves from going rogue like he did and hurting the ones they love too. So for years he is ate up with guilt and still loves Maia never touches another woman not even a kiss. So when Maia and Jordan got back together (Maia forgave him because she knows when you are first turned you can’t control things and have black out rages) I was so happy. Then she started acting cold to him in this book. She started pulling away. Just out of the blue. The last book ended and they were fine. Now she is having trouble forgiving the past and doesn’t want to be with him? Then CC kills Jordan! Yup kills him and Maia tells Bat her ex that she was planning to break up with him because she didn’t really get over the past. So he died and the woman he loved didn’t really love him back. God!
And the whole Emma/Jules/ Blackthorn family plot line bored me. I started skipping their part of the book completely. I just didn’t care. Why was she trying to start a whole new story plot with a whole new set of characters? Ohhh I know why because she started a spin off series with them. But I don’t care. Just sayin’! Maybe if I would have met them in book 1-3 I could have connected but the last book…pfff whatevs!
Now lets talk about that epilogue. It felt more like a HFN than a HEA and this is the last book in the series so Where is the wrap up? I got no real closure. No marriages, no babies no future. Just 6 months later and Jace and Clary are together, Simon can’t really remember much but kinda remembers a very little thanks to Magnus, and everything is pretty much the same as the last 5 books. WTF there are no more books in this series so why leave things feeling unfinished. I get she is doing spin off series left and right but I needed closure! I feel like I just wasted my time and got nothing from it. I was just so disappointed and unsatisfied. I still gave the book 2 stars because there are some good parts and tons of action but overall it could have been so so so much better!
Awesome series, highly recommend! Love the New York modern-day setting, and all the characters – Shadowhunters, demons, warlocks, werewolves, faeries, vampires, etc. The romantic aspects of the book are all interesting and don’t detract from the plot. This series is very hard to put down and will have you hooked from start to finish!
