The first book of the series, written by Cassandra Clare, was published in March, 2007 and by April, was already highly popular. It is a series of modern and urban fantasy, filled with Angels, demons and every other creature known to that genre. There is love, there's battles, there is honor and betrayal and above else, it is unique in it's story line.
The series consists of five books so far with a sixth and final book scheduled for release in May, 2014. All the books in the series have been in the New York Times Bestseller lists. City of Bones was number 1 on the list for 9 weeks, taking the place of The Hunger Games.
There are plenty of us out there who feel we don't have time to read a whole book series. That's why having the best sellers become movies is great! It takes a few days if not more to read a book series but it only takes a couple of hours to go see a movie. Check it out and see if you like the visual story!
