The City Of Bones/ Late

Title:City of Bones
Author:Cassandra Clair
Date:09/18/14
Pages:169-end
Prompt: List the main characters

The main characters of the book are Clary , Jace and Valentine. Jace I believe is the third main character. Jace full name is Jace Herondale his guardian is Valentine a ruthless Shadow hunter that fights for the opposite side(against Downworlders side). Jace was raised by Valentine through his younger years until Valentine choose the opposite side. After that Jace meet his biological parents Celine and Stephen Herondale. Currently Jace is not with either of them he is with his uncles family(also shadow hunters) in the New York City institute. The reason Jace is the second main character is because he has been there since the beginning either protecting Clary (1st main character) or just knowing her. Overall he is the main character because he is there since the beginning of the book and he is one of the best Shadowhunters in the world.

The second main character is Valentine the shadowhunter. Valentines full name is Valentine Morgenstern he is the father of Clary (1 main character) and Sebastian Morgenstern. He was married to Clary
Frays mother Jocelyn Fray. Valentine created a secret society (well not really secret but secret form humans) called the Circle of Raziel. The Circle of Raziel is a group of people with a common goal to exterminate Downworlders. He wants to exterminate Downworlders because a Downworlder killed his father and so Valentine is exacting revenge by trying to take them out. The problem is that the shadowhunter society is trying to create peace with the downworlders so there shadowhunters wont always have to fight with them. In the end Valentine is most likely not to succeed because its basically wiping out a whole entire species.

The last and most important character is Clary the mundane/shadowhunter. Clary is a mundane because well she lived like that for years but she is also a shadowhunter because she can do everything they do and better. Clary i believe is the most important character in the whole book. We get to become shadowhunters with her we may not see it through her eyes but the narrator is always with her and telling us what she sees and feels. That really surprised me because usually they don't tell us there feelings unless its first person. This whole was like a roller coaster it was good but then there was dull parts but then after the dull part there was action.
