The Shadowhunter's Codex by Cassandra Clare

4.0

Just after binge-reading most of Cassandra Clare's books from about City of Fallen Angels to Lord of Shadows, it was a good book to end the binge on. Whilst it is still very, very Shadowhuntery, you take a step back from the story and fiction side of the world and still learn a whole lot. It also would be an extremely beneficial read for future Shadowhunter Chronicles books as it can supply a lot of contexts and understand a lot more information she usually offhandedly mentions.

This book has an extremely specific audience, for those who are large fans of the books and want to understand the Shadow world more. If you don't fall into this category, I'd suggest you'd probably find this book a bit tedious and boring, however, you are probably not the intended audience. You definitely don't need to read it to understand the series and the world - as I finished the series before I read it, so if you don't think you would be interested, don't worry about not knowing things for future books.
