I'm so in love with this book, I read it within 12 days. Maas is a spectacular writer and this series has my imagination running wild.
I would recommend this to anyone that loves a good fantasy or romance.

Milly Bobby Brown starring fantasy adventure, that put me very much in mind of a modern Dragonheart / Dragonslayer hybrid of a movie, with elements of romance, horror and action adventure going on throughout.
The first half hour or so is maybe a bit slow, and the finale seems almost 'tacked on', but the middle portion (in the cave) is actually enjoyable enough.

Admittedly fantasy books aren't my favourite (neither are books over 400pgs) and this took me a little time to get into. It was probably about the time Declan was properly introduced that my interest was piqued. At the same time though, I was still struggling with the story. I'd say it was from about a third of the way in when it started to grow on me, as did Declan.
It had an interesting concept with the two linked worlds--one fantasy-esque with nobles and the likes and the other a lot like the world now--with a thin strip known as The Edge linking them together.
I didn't always understand what was happening, especially at the beginning, but it was explained in more detail the more I read of the book.
This is my second book by the author and I think I might read more of her Kate Daniels series since I prefer more paranormal romance/urban fantasy books than just normal fantasy.

This three box set series is exciting, thrilling, and one epic fantasy.
The series follows Dana a reluctant princess and Will a man who can see more in Dana than just the facade on the outside. Together they must save the empire and maybe each other along the way.
This is an epic fantasy that brings you in and makes you want to read all three books in a row. It is wonderful to have a box set that let's you do that. If you enjoy epic romance and an adventure to save a kingdom you will enjoy this.

It's back, I'm so glad I carried on with the series after the Queen of Shadows. The story in this one is excellent and I love how everything ties together. So much fantasy!
I still HATE Rowan, he's so sappy and I hate the romance scenes with him involved. I don't know why but this character writing is wrong for his history and experience.
Plus I think the blood oath is just a farce at this point, used for a plot hole and show how powerful Caleana is but we know that from other things

The brother-sister plot line (spoilers as for why in review)
The fantasy world Clare creates
Contains spoilers, click to show
I love this book (currently reading book 5 of the series) because of the world that Clare relates. Whilst it contains the fantasy ideas expressed in different novels; it brings them all together in a unique and interesting way. Controversially, I enjoy the brother-sister plot line the novel introduces to the budding romance of Clary and Jace; it means that we are not reading the same cliche teen romance. People think it is weird but SPOILER ALERT they are not actually brother and sister but allows character progression and other storylines to happen. This allows the romance to occur naturally and when we can see that the feelings are genuine and true. Overall, Clare has produced a great novel to begin her series and leaves reader wanting to know more and delve deeper into the Shadowhunter world.

Good begining
Kresley Cole has created an incredibly complex and surprising story line in this book. With romance, danger, relatability and a new take on Armageddon this book is the starter of the Arcana Chronicles. The book as a whole incorporates just enough romance to be relatively intriguing while not overpoweringly sappy. The series focuses on the growth and development of a 16 year old who is thrown into a world she literally dreamed of, and not in a good way. With zombies and superpowered teenagers based on tarot cards things are bound to get a little crazy. I recommend this book (and the series) to fantasy and fiction lovers.
