This was a fantastic sequel with many twists and turns that kept me on the edge of my seat the whole way through! It took me so long to finish because I had been spoiled for the ending and was so afraid to get to that point. I FINALLY finished it though and highly recommend it!

This book has so much action it made my head spin. Usually second books in a trilogy are slow and have a lot of set up but not this one. The ending was so chaotic I’m not sure where or how the next book will continue on.

A diferencia de Lady Midnight este libro me pareció bastante más crudo y desolador, me gusta que los personajes, especialmente Julian, se manejen en una moralidad gris casi todo el tiempo y nos terminemos cuestionando nuestra propia moral.
No me termina de cerrar la historia de Diana (i mean, entiendo y apoyo la representación LGBT but seriously? Lo sentí un poco forzado). Y banco mucho mucho la relación Cristina-Kieran-Mark, si no terminan juntos me lastimo (no es literal, es un decir)



En otro tema: Leo todo lo de Cassandra Clare porque me gustan mucho sus historias y personajes, su habilidad de crear mundos increíbles que podrían existir, pero que jamás nos enteraríamos pues somos simples mundanos (el universo del Downworld y los Shadowhunters es mi favorito del mundo ficción), pero (y es un gran pero) su obsesión con el incesto me preocupa mucho.
