The final book in the Infernal Devices Trilogy
Tessa Gray should be happy – aren’t all brides happy?
Yet as she prepares for her wedding, a net of shadows begins to tighten around the Shadowhunters of the London Institute.
A new demon appears, one linked by blood and secrecy to Mortmain, the man who plans to use his army of pitiless automatons, the Infernal Devices, to destroy the Shadowhunters. Mortmain needs only one last item to complete his plan. He needs Tessa. And Jem and Will, the boys who lay equal claim to Tessa’s heart, will do anything to save her.

Cassandra Clare wrapped up the trilogy very nicely. In fact, I believe that she couldn't have written it any better. I wasn't sure if I could write a review that would do justice to how wonderful this book was to read. I felt as if I had a 'book hangover' after finishing it. It was quite possibly the best of the trilogy.
Every issue that had been left unresolved was cleared up. I was very happy with the way the author handled the love triangle of Tess, Will, and Jem. It was beautiful and heartbreaking.
The entire book (as well as the others) was an emotional rollercoaster. The epilogue in particular wrenched at my heart, and left me in tears.
Each character grew so much throughout the books, especially Will. I honestly fell in love with him and even more so in this book. He became such an amazing and indepth character. We saw his passion, gentleness, determination, and heartache. He was so real and raw.
The Mortmain storyline within the book is also concluded very nicely. I strongly disliked him (as well as most everyone who has read the books probably does). I'm glad that there was a definite resolution.
Overall, as I said before the book is absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend it. This trilogy made me fall in love with steampunk/fantasy novels. I'm sad to see it end, but I'm excited to start The Mortal Instruments series.
I rated this book 5 out 5 stars on Goodreads.
