Chain of gold a review part 3

Chain of gold a review part 3 So I have some quotes from the book that I would like to share with people and they are quite, illuminating, so they show a very different side to the Shadowhunter’s world, and the world that they live in isn’t so different from our own, it has its issues that are unique to the shadow world. That they are born into the world and face ex-communication if they try to escape or live apart from the world. I will share them in another post as this post is very information heavy as well and I see that the quotes them selves deserve there own posts.  This world is brutal, and we see that Tessa Gray a half Shadowhunter half warlock is, featured much more heavily in this area.    We see that she doesn’t know who her father is but we see this explains why her son a Herondale has an ability that other shadow hunters don’t this is the ability, to go into demonic realms, and this is quite interesting in that the demonic realms are, complex to navigate in a way, and
