Blended reading (audio + physical)

The Details:
Narrated by Natalie Moore
Unabridged

I really enjoyed seeing the magical world of Idris. I think being in this world and seeing the different culture there created even more enjoyment and helped to make this one of my favourite reads of the series so far.

So many pivotal points happened in the 3rd installment - I wonder if it was originally a series of trilogies because this felt like a really satisfying conclusion.

The family dynamics got so much more messy and complex, I was constantly shocked by all the reveals - it was fantastic! 

Simon flourished in this book. I can see great things for him in the future and I really want to see him succeed.

I loved seeing the dynamic between the nephilim and the downworlders adapt throughout this story. It wasn't a simple fix, but took time, had conspiracies and duplicity and was a great use of plot development. 

Can't wait to read book 4.

oh my gosh, poor Max :( that's so sad! 
I also felt bad again for my bestie Simon. He's always being used - Isabelle using him as a distraction for her grief over the death of her little brother... but I mean  hey at least she said that's what it is straight away.

Slow book to start but then really picked up. Mainly building the story and then plenty of detail once the scene was set. Get through the first section and then it really heats up! Plot twists galore!

La verdad que el libro me terminó gustando muchisimo más de lo que me gustaba. Amo la evolución de casi todos los personajes, más que nada la de Jace. 
Saber que todavía me quedan el 4to y 5to por leer me dan ganas de llorar.
