Story4.5 out of 5 stars 157
When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder - much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing - not even a smear of blood - to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 87
All Magnus Bane wanted was a vacation - a lavish trip across Europe with Alec Lightwood, the shadowhunter who against all odds is finally his boyfriend. But as soon as the pair settles in Paris, an old friend arrives with news about a demon-worshiping cult called the Crimson Hand that is bent on causing chaos around the world. A cult that was apparently founded by Magnus himself. Years ago. As a joke. Now, Magnus and Alec must race across Europe to track down the Crimson Hand and its elusive new leader before the cult can cause any more damage.

Gwyneth Shepherd's sophisticated, beautiful cousin Charlotte has been prepared her entire life for traveling through time. But unexpectedly, it is Gwyneth who, in the middle of class, takes a sudden spin to a different era! Gwyneth must now unearth the mystery of why her mother would lie about her birth date to ward off suspicion about her ability, brush up on her history, and work with Gideon, the time traveler from a similarly gifted family that passes the gene through its male line, and whose presence becomes, in time, less insufferable and more essential.

Publisher's Summary
When the Silent Brothers are murdered and the second of the Mortal Instruments, the Sword of Souls, is stolen, the terrifying Inquisitor is dispatched from Idris to investigate. She clearly harbors a personal grudge against Jace, and she drives a wedge between him and his adoptive family. When Clary's romance with her best friend, Simon, starts to heat up, Jace feels abandoned. But has he, as the Inquisitor accuses, joined up with his father?
Then Simon is turned into a vampire and kidnapped by Valentine, who intends to sacrifice him as part of a bloody ritual that will make the Mortal Instruments his own forever. Jace knows he needs to save Simon's life, for Clary's sake. But what if he's too late? What if Valentine has already made the Mortal Instruments his own?

good book. bad narrator
loved this book and the whole series. the narrator on the other hand, I could barely stand. she gives unnecessary accents and makes clary sound like a stuck up b*tch. she makes her sound exactly how clary describes the girls she hates in the first book but I guess she didn't narrate the first book so she wouldn't know.

Pretty Entertaining
The narrator did a good job, and it was very easy to remain engaged in the story. However, despite the excitement of the story, it did have a few flaws which dropped it to a 3.5/5 rating for me.

Exciting
After I finished listening to City of Bones I couldn't wait until book two, City of Ashes was released. To fully appreciate it, I re-listened to book one and then continued straight into book two.
The first thing I noticed is the different narrator, which at first I thought would be an issue, but it wasn't. Natalie Moore did a wonderful job and after only 15 minutes or so I forgot she was a different narrator.
As the adventure continued in this book you find yourself in a world full of thrills, excitement, puzzlement, joy, sadness, love, war, and the want for more. Could there be in the future?

Not appropriate for adults - YA only
What disappointed you about City of Ashes?
While I was able to get through the first book in this series, the second failed to keep my interest. I am an avid YA fan even though I'm an adult and some are better (Hunger Games, Delirium trilogy) than others. The constant life threatening situations the characters had to face got old after awhile and the lack of character development was disappointing. For teenagers, I think this series would be perfect - plenty of action. For adults, I think you'll be wanting more.

I dont like the narrator
I found the narrator to be a bit annoying. She made everything sound more juvenile than the narrator in the first book. She also narrates the third book. I have to take a break from this series for a while so I can stomach the third book and continue with the rest of the series. Sigh.

Very good but left us with even more questions
This felt very much like a middle book. I enjoyed the conflict and interactions. I wanted to yell at several characters though. On the romance front, I not only wanted to yell at them; I wanted to slap some sense into half of them. SO FRUSTRATING.
I'm looking forward to some resolution in the next book. I NEED some resolution in the next book.
Magnus is still one of my favorite characters.

love the story but don't like the narrator. She is monotone, and doesn't help the story be exciting. Different accents help and more emotion.

Wonderful narrator - drew me in
The narrator for City of Ashes was much better than the one for it's prequel, City of Bones. This narrator, Natalie Moore, did a fantastic job. She switched between characters flawlessly and had a perfect voice for each character, too. It was almost exactly how I imagined them when I read through the stories in paperback, especially Valentine. I am looking forward to book 3 with this Natalie Moore as well.
These stories are great, I am really enjoying them. They are definitely young-adult genre... which means they are easy to follow along, not too in depth, and typically light reading/listening despite the intended dark nature of the stories. Still, though, they are great books! The author does a great job building up the characters, every single one of them. I hardly feel anyone is left out or goes unnoticed in the stories. It's well done.
I also know they are making movies out of this series, the first one coming out next August (2013). I will definitely be going to see it. :)

I would definitely recommend this to others. It is easy to get into the story of Clary & Jace. You feel for them..you wonder what is around the next bend for them. I was disappointed when it ended, but couldn't wait for the next book!

Much better than the first!
I listened to the first book in the series a while back and was had no plans to finish the series, even though I LOVED Clare's Clockwork series. But, I recently watched the City of Bones movie and decided to give the series another try. I'm glad I did - the second book was much better. The story line was much more engaging/exciting and the narrator much better as well. Looking forward to book 3.

2 Book is Great!!
What does Natalie Moore bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Natalie is an awesome story narrator. She is enjoyable to listen too and brings the characters to life with their own personalities.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
OH, yes if I had the time I would have listened to this book in one sitting.

Great Series
What made the experience of listening to City of Ashes the most enjoyable?
This is a great series & I read the books first so listening was like revisiting a favorite place
What was one of the most memorable moments of City of Ashes?
Finding out who Jace & Clary are to each other!
What about Natalie Moore’s performance did you like?
She was very easy to understand, however I prefer when they continue using the same narrator for the duration of a series. Cassie Clare's books have all been narrated by different people.
