A review by savetris
The Red Scrolls of Magic by Wesley Chu, Cassandra Clare

3.0

I should've liked this, but I kept being reminded that Alec was a teenager!!!! The two of them were probably the only two characters from the original series that I actually liked, but the more CC writes, the more I realize how problematic her books were. Like a fool, I keep reading them anyway. Timeline confused me a little, the "twists" were predictable except maybe that one in the epilogue

Spoiler

(but honestly I don't even remember how Ragnor Fell was supposed to have died or whatever).

and having already known everyone was alive and well years later kind of takes away any thrill and excitement. Loved Aline and Helen, though. Why can't we have a series about them?
