Synopsis:

Emma Carstairs has finally avenged her parents. She thought she'd be at peace. But she is anything but calm. Torn between her desire for her parabatai Julian and her desire to protect him from the brutal consequences of parabatai relationships, she has begun dating his brother, Mark. But Mark has spent the past five years trapped in Faerie; can he ever truly be a Shadowhunter again?
And the faerie courts are not silent. The Unseelie King is tired of the Cold Peace, and will no longer concede to the Shadowhunters' demands. Caught between the demands of faerie and the laws of the Clave, Emma, Julian, and Mark must find a way to come together to defend everything they hold dear--before it's too late.
Review:



This book was my most anticipated read of 2017 and it definitely did not disappoint. There was action, romance, drama, humour and a whole host of emotions in this book. I especially liked that we learnt more about each of the Blackthorns, I came to care about them as a whole family unit as well as unique individuals. I do feel that with each book Cassandra Clare is growing as a writer and her books are becoming richer for it. 

I gave this book 5 out of 5 stars and I am unsure how I am going to survive the wait for the last book in this trilogy.
