Publisher's Summary

The Shadowhunters of Los Angeles star in the first novel in Cassandra Clare's newest series, The Dark Artifices, a sequel to the internationally best-selling Mortal Instruments series. Lady Midnight is a Shadowhunters novel.

It's been five years since the events of City of Heavenly Fire that brought the Shadowhunters to the brink of oblivion. Emma Carstairs is no longer a child in mourning but a young woman bent on discovering what killed her parents and avenging her losses.

Together with her parabatai, Julian Blackthorn, Emma must learn to trust her head and her heart as she investigates a demonic plot that stretches across Los Angeles, from the Sunset Strip to the enchanted sea that pounds the beaches of Santa Monica. If only her heart didn't lead her in treacherous directions....

Making things even more complicated, Julian's brother Mark - who was captured by the faeries five years ago - has been returned as a bargaining chip. The faeries are desperate to find out who is murdering their kind - and they need the Shadowhunters' help to do it. But time works differently in faerie, so Mark has barely aged and doesn't recognize his family. Can he ever truly return to them? Will the faeries really allow it?

Glitz, glamours, and Shadowhunters abound in this heartrending opening to Cassandra Clare's Dark Artifices series.

poor pronunciation

The book itself is extremely well-written and addictive. However, it's really frustrating that with the entire series, all of the narrators seem to be incapable of pronouncing the word foyer properly. It's absolutely annoying. Not to mention, they all seem to mispronounce the word Stele, which we know the proper pronunciation from the actual author of the book. Very frustrating indeed.

It's so embarrassing

I can't finish listening to this book. I tried many times, I did my best.
I understand straight women love to create a dream man character to satisfy their fantasy, but not like this. When men create a dream woman character, they sexualize her. When straight women write a dream man, they make him like a god. I'm so embarrassed to hear the parts about how good and beautiful the boy in heroin's eyes each time. I can't stop rolling my eyes.
