Brooke (thecovercontessa) I'm about 1/2 way through and so far I really like it. I read ID first, so I had the background. The story line is similar, but I still like it a lot!

Karina JACE! Hands Down!!

Madeleine | 1065 comments Yeah, your right. Will's nicer though.

I'm afraid I've become a traitor and now like Will more than Jace.


message 163: by Madeleine (new) - added it

Madeleine | 1065 comments Will is cooler than Jace, I must say, but Jace would beat will in a fight.


message 164: by Karina (new) - rated it 4 stars

Karina Hahaha

What about Jace vs Simon? Lets say in CoLS Jace tries to hurt Clary while he is being mind controlled by Sebastian aNd Simon tries to fight him off to protect her. who would win?

WHAT?! :O
how did this happen?


message 167: by Karina (new) - rated it 4 stars

Karina But Simon is awesome and a vampire! Plus a part of Jace would be trying to fight off the mid control

Madeleine | 1065 comments Will. Rules.

Simon is a boss but I think Jace could hands tied behind his back defeat Simon.


message 170: by Madeleine (new) - added it

Madeleine | 1065 comments And Jace has who knows how many years of fighting training up his sleeve, Simon has....nothing.


message 171: by Karina (new) - rated it 4 stars

Karina Sorry I disagree im Team Jem!

Haha maybe you two are right about Jace beating Simon!

Simon is a vampire he should should get some points for that!!


message 173: by Karina (new) - rated it 4 stars

Karina OHHH what would happen if Jace ad Clary had to battle each other!?


message 174: by Madeleine (new) - added it

Madeleine | 1065 comments But Tessa loves will more....


message 175: by Karina (new) - rated it 4 stars

Karina Simon does get major points for that!

But Jem is a sweetheart..

that would be epic.. I hope clary kicks his butt.

Madeleine | 1065 comments Jem is a sweetheart, and I love him for that, but he's more like a brother to Tessa....

What if Jace is put under Sebastians control could Magnus reverse the control??


message 180: by Madeleine (new) - added it

Madeleine | 1065 comments maybe....Clary's rune power seems more likely though


message 181: by Karina (new) - rated it 4 stars

Karina Well maybe they can work together! I mean Magnus is a warlock afterall!


message 182: by Madeleine (new) - added it

Madeleine | 1065 comments good point.

Ok, Clary vs. Tessa. who wins?


Courtney Madeleine wrote: "Will. Rules.

Yes! He's just...he put himself through all of that and acted like a jerk just because he cared about his friends...I don't know. He's just better.


message 184: by Madeleine (new) - added it

Madeleine | 1065 comments and then he takes the fact that Tessa will marry Jem (worse idea ever btw) and doesn't complain...just accepts it.


message 185: by Karina (new) - rated it 4 stars

Karina what about Jace! He gives Simon his blood to save him even though he doesn't like him! and rescues him again in CoG..

Clary would win! no doubt about that one

What if in CoLS there was a wedding who should get married?


message 187: by Madeleine (new) - added it

Madeleine | 1065 comments Ok, but he also doesn't act on the fact he's getting strange dreams about killing his gf. Wouldn't you tell someone of that happened to you?

I would be scared to tell anyone that!


message 190: by Karina (new) - rated it 4 stars

Karina There will be a huge wedding!

Madeleine | 1065 comments Something tell me that Clary's sudden disappearance to save Jace will postpone it until the end of CoHF


message 192: by Karina (new) - rated it 4 stars

Karina Yeah they deserve tpo get married and start a life together!

Precisely why you have to talk!!! It would freak me out!!! If I were him, I would have at least told alec

they can't do it while they worry about Clary though. I think their wedding would make for a good ending to the series with a possible proposal from somebody to someone else thrown in.

it's hard to express yourself sometimes..
Plus I think there should be a triple wedding:
Simon+Isabelle
Luke+Jocelyn
Clary+Jace

Karina Haha okay well im still on Jaces team :P

Oh Luke ad Joycelyns wedding as the ending i CoHF would be perfect!

Here's another question..
Is the Shadowhunter World becoming too long? Many are saying that MI should have been a trilogy and that the Dark Artifices is stupid..


Courtney Madeleine wrote: "and then he takes the fact that Tessa will marry Jem (worse idea ever btw) and doesn't complain...just accepts it."

Exactly! And that shows how loyal a parabatai he is.

Madeleine | 1065 comments Ok, i cant see jocelyn letting clary and jace get married that young. Here where i think:

1. Jace proposes
2. They get married in secret
3. The epilouge is a skip ahead to their wedding


Courtney Don't Shadowhunters get married younger though?
