Review: OMG - Chain of Gold, a new Shadowhunters novel, is the first novel in the brand-new trilogy where evil is hiding in plain sight and love cuts deeper than any forged blade. Cordelia Carstairs is a Shadowhunter, a warrior who is trained since her childhood to battle demons. However when her father is accused of a terrible crime, she and her brother will travel to London in the hopes of preventing their families ruin. Cordelia's mother wants to marry her off, but Cordelia is determined to be a hero rather than a bride who would be stuck in her house under her husband's thumb. Soon Cordelia will encounter her childhood friends James and Lucie Herondale and is drawn to the glittery world full of ballrooms, assignations, supernatural salons where vampires and warlocks mingle with mermaids and magicians. In all the time tat she is experiencing this she must hide the love which is building for James and this is made all the more important as he is sworn to marry someone else. But Cordelia's new life is about to be blown apart when a shocking series of demon attacks devastate London and the whole of the UK. These monsters are nothing like those that the Shadowhunters have fought before and these demons can walk in daylight, strike down the unwary with incurable poison, and seem impossible to kill. London is immediately placed in a state of quarantine. This means that Cordelia and her friends are trapped in the city, and they discover their own connection to the dark legacy has gifted them with some incredible powers ... they are then forced with a brutal choice which will reveal the true and cruel price of being a hero. This is one of the most engaging books which i have read in 2020, I love the characters and the new story arc which has been built for them. As always Clare is able to balance the struggles of the time with the angst of the love troupe in a way only she can. I am a sucker for the Victorian London and the comraderies which is always evident.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant start to a new trilogy
*by Z***H on 13 February 2023*

Cassandra Clare doesn't miss. I was a little scared (as I usually am) when reading a book in a world I love. But I needn't have been scared. It felt like reuniting with an old friend, a friend that likes to hurt me before healing. Shout out to Will Herondale for stealing every scene he was in. Love you boo. The Herondales were Herondaling very much in this. Not much more to say other than I love the Herondales. I loved the characters, each had a distinct voice and the interactions between the characters were great. The Merry Thieves were a good addition to the Shadowhunter universe. I will say though it was little confusing keeping track of which Lightwood was related to who, probably should've re-read The Infernal Devices before I started this but I was too eager. Cordelia was a good main lean, strong and likeable. it was easy to route for her. Seeing the characters from The Infernal Devices as parents was a joy, especially when they attempted to deter their children from seeking trouble. They should know better. The storyline was easy to follow, the plot unravelled at a decent pace. Some elements were predictable but I'm not convinced they weren't written that way, possibly for the audience to figure out and have the characters be unaware. Cassandra Clare does love to frustrate and make us suffer. All in all, a good first book in the trilogy.
