In this dazzling and long-awaited conclusion to the acclaimed Mortal Instruments series, Clary and her friends fight the greatest evil they have ever faced: Clary's own brother.
Sebastian Morgenstern is on the move, systematically turning Shadowhunter against Shadowhunter. Bearing the Infernal Cup, he transforms Shadowhunters into creatures out of nightmare, tearing apart families and lovers as the ranks of his Endarkened army swell.
The embattled Shadowhunters withdraw to Idris - but not even the famed demon towers of Alicante can keep Sebastian at bay. And with the Nephilim trapped in Idris, who will guard the world against demons?
When one of the greatest betrayals the Nephilim have ever known is revealed, Clary, Jace, Isabelle, Simon, and Alec must flee - even if their journey takes them deep into the demon realms, where no Shadowhunter has set foot before, and from which no human being has ever returned...
Love will be sacrificed and lives lost in the terrible battle for the fate of the word in the thrilling final installment of the classic urban fantasy series The Mortal Instruments!

Ok this was a nice adventure but I felt all the way that the action was sometimes waaaaaay too slow. And even if some elements and characters constructions are really great I felt that we never really get to something true and maybe sometimes more simple.
Anyway I really enjoyed this ending and feel like she is way more comfortable with giving closure.
A fitting end to this amazing series.
I read them all over the last 2 weeks, could hardly put them down.
And the early ones I re-read, because I read them soon after release.
Truly addictive reading and amazing world building.
Meh. I felt like the series-long storylines were tidied up too easily, and that a large portion of this book was aimed at setting up for her new series. I like this universe but I'm done for now.
