Излиза на 11.03.2011г.
City of Fallen Angels takes place after the events of City of Glass. It shifts its focus from Jace and Clary to Clary’s best friend, Simon, and how he adjusts to life as a vampire. From the press release: “Love, blood, betrayal and revenge — the stakes are higher than ever in City of Fallen Angels. Simon Lewis is having some trouble adjusting to his new life as a vampire, especially now that he hardly sees his best friend Clary, who is caught up in training to be a Shadowhunter—and spending time with her new boyfriend Jace. Not to mention that Simon doesn’t quite know how to handle the pressure of not-quite-dating two girls at once. What’s a daylight-loving vampire to do? Simon decides he needs a break and heads out of the city—only to discover that sinister events are following him. Realizing that the war they thought they’d won might not yet be over, Simon has to call on his Shadowhunter friends to save the day — if they can put their own splintering relationships on hold long enough to rise to the challenge.”
On the change of narration, Clare claims: “Simon has always been one of my favorite characters to write about, and I’m excited to get the chance to tell his story while revisiting some of the other characters that I love form The Mortal Instruments series. The enthusiasm for telling Simon’s story that I’ve received from the team at McElderry Books and Simon & Schuster has been great, and I’m excited to be working with them to bring a fourth book to the series.”
In her own words, Clare summarizes City of Fallen Angels: "City of Fallen Angels takes place after the events of City of Glass. It splits its focus between Jace and Clary and Clary’s best friend, Simon, and how he adjusts to life as a vampire, but it’s still an ensemble-cast story, and all the characters from the Mortal Instruments series appear in it: Jace, Isabelle, Alec, Magnus, Luke, Jocelyn, Maia, and many more. (It even helps to have read The Clockwork Angel before you read [City of Fallen Angels], because some of the characters from the [Infernal Devices] series do show up in it. However, it isn’t required.) In City of Fallen Angels, someone’s killing the Shadowhunters who used to be in Valentine’s Circle and leaving their bodies around New York City in a manner designed to provoke hostility between Downworlders and Shadowhunters. Internecine warfare among vampires is ripping the Downworld community apart, and only Simon — the Daylighter who everyone wants on their side — can decide the outcome; too bad he wants nothing to do with Downworld politics. Meanwhile Jace and Clary investigate a mystery that has deeply personal consequences for them — consequences that may strengthen their relationship, or rip it apart forever. Love, blood, betrayal and revenge: the stakes are higher than ever in City of Fallen Angels."
Many readers, however, have complained about the focus switching to Simon, wrongly believing that the book will not include Jace or Clary, to which Clare replied: "What I want to know is, where did this rumor start that they aren’t? Every description I’ve ever given of City of Fallen Angels includes the information that Jace and Clary will be in it, and be in it plenty. And yet I get this question every day. I’d love to know why!" | |

Кой ще се влюби и кой ще открие, че връзката му е безвъзвратно разрушена?
Кой ще предаде всичко, в което някога е вярвал?
Действието в Град на Падналите Ангели се развива два месеца след събитията в Град от Стъкло. В книгата, мистериозна фигура избива Ловците на Сенки, които преди да били част от Кръгът на Валънтайн, и оставя телата им из цял Ню Йорк по начин, който да провокира враждата между Ловците на Сенки и Долноземци, карайки напрежението да ескалира из града и проваляйки плановете на Клери да води възможно най-нормален живот - да тренира за Ловец и да развива връзката си с Джейс. Докато Джейс и Клери дълбаят все по-дълбоко в проблема с убитите Ловци, те откриват една мистерия, която има дълбоко лични последици за тях - последици, които могат да заздравят връзката им или да я разрушат завинаги. Междувременно, кръвопролитна война между вампирите разрушава обществото на Долноземците и само Саймън - способен да излиза на слънце, когото всички искат да своя страна - може да реши как ще завърши всичко; жалко, че той не иска да има нищо общо с Долноземната политика. Любов, кръв, предателство и отмъщение: залогът е по-голям от всякога в Град на Паднали Ангели.
