Chain of Gold, by Cassandra Clare, follows a group of shadowhunters,

descendants of angels whose main goal is to kill demons, in 1903 London. Cordelia

Carstairs is a young shadowhunter moving to England with her family. While there she

reunites with her childhood love, James Herondale, his sister and Cordelia’s best friend,

Lucie, and a host of new characters. While Cordelia gets acclimated to her new home, a

series of murders starts popping up around London. As the shadowhunters get closer to

the mystery, forbidden love, murder, and betrayal surround them.



This book was very enjoyable. The Shadowhunters book series is a huge

collection, and this book was especially interesting as it focuses on the children of former

main characters from a previous trilogy. Cassandra Clare’s writing is always extremely

funny and quick to read, which makes this a very easy and entertaining read. Cordelia

and James’ romance was so sweet and made me really root for them as a couple. This

book’s plot was a bit weak, but overall it was still a great addition to the series.
