The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bones

642 Words3 Pages

Clarissa Fray, also known as Clary, is the main protagonist of The Mortal instruments: City of Bones. She’s short, has red curly hair, green eyes and a somewhat lanky figure. Clary is stubborn but a very compassionate person. She’s known for her unique ability to create new runes, considering she has more angle blood in her than any other Shadowhunter. Except for Jace, the second protagonist. Jace Lightwood is a skilled shadowhunter with the features of an literal angel but actions of a jerk. He has fine wavy dark golden-blonde hair and golden eyes, with an angular face and a narrow mouth. Jace has a slim muscular body covered in silver marks from years of runes. Jace is the kind of person who laughs while fighting dangerous creatures that …show more content…

You can expect lots of supernatural beings and actions. Warlocks, fairies, werewolves and vampires are creatures who inhabit the Shadow World, that can only be seen if you have the Sight. They also go by the term Downworlders. Supernatural actions as bloodsucking, abnormal healing and demon-summoning isn’t anything odd. Come to think of it, I would also place this book as a romance because it involves the protagonists slowly falling in love with each other as well as several love triangles throughout the novel. I think the reason the book goes by the title The Mortal instruments: City Of Bones is because the story partially takes place in the City of Bones, also known as the Silent City. The Silent City is a necropolis that holds the dead bodies of slain Shadowhunters, and is an important place in this book. This is where Clary was taken to get her mind examined by the Silent Brothers, in attempt to search for her memories. The Mortal Instruments are three divine objects, given by the Angel Raziel centuries ago. A mirror, a sword and a cup. Each object has it’s power, the Mortal Cup for example, has the power to create more Shadowhunters. In the book, the Cup goes

    With the temperament of the characters and the diction with which the author composed, the tale was able to draw the reader back to the 17th century, where the original history transpired. The pandemonium that occurred almost seems too absurd to be true; cries of witchcraft and claims of witnessing others conspire with the devil are anomalies that you would find only in a modern day horror film. To imagine living in an era in which these oddities are considered ordinary is nearly unbelievable, therefore making it difficult to fathom that these events ensued long
