Cassandra Clare is one of the better authors of the ya-fantasy genre and if you overlook her ripping of another writer, you can actually enjoy this book. The characters and the storyline are fine and it's easy to read. But what is that awful "is it or isn't it incest" storyline. We definitely could have done without it, ma'am.

Sinceramente, no recordaba casi nada de este libro y leerlo casi 5 años después me dí cuenta que cosas estaban realmente mal con este libro y que cosas safaban pero, LO QUE ME MOLESTA ES QUE NO ME ACORDABA QUE JACE Y CLARY SABÍAN DESDE EL FINAL DEL PRIMER LIBRO QUE ERAN "HERMANOS", ME VOY A LARGAR A LLORAR POR SABER QUE TENGO 5 LIBROS POR DELANTE CON ELLOS LAMENTANDOSE DE QUE SON HERMANOS Y NO PUEDEN ESTAR JUNTOS, NADIE LE DIJO A CASSANDRA CHE PIBA, NO DA HACER ESTO POR FAVOR SOLTÁ EL INCEST KINK. Quiero agradecer de que existe la pareja de Izzy y Simón y la de Alec y Magnus.
