Okay, I know you've all probably seen it around the blogosphere, but I couldn't help but not post it. As most of you know, I am a HUGE fan of Cassandra Clare's books. I mean if there was a fire (knock on wood) I would grab my Mortal Instruments box set. I simply am on the edge of my seat for this release. I've been in love with Jace but, also have a thing for Simon as well. It's great to see him on the cover, just wished his adorable, Asian face was noticeable. As for Clary, she is fiery and sassy as always. Great new look and kudos to Simon & Schuster/ Margaret K. McElderry! This book comes out on April 5th 2011.
Summary: City of Fallen Angels is the fourth book in the bestselling series The Mortal Instruments. 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.
What are your thoughts on the cover?

I like everything but the people. They look like mannequins. But the rest falls nicely with the rest of the series.
The book fits, but Tina is right, the people kinda look CGI as opposed to the other covers.
I don't like Simon Model. I know covers will never depict exactly what they pick in the book but i don't know this Simon just Irks me. Other then that it is a cute cover.
Doesn't look natural.. The other book covers are alluring, something is off about this one...
Now a follower.

This cover is different since it includes 2 people and it's missing the traditional skyline like the other covers. We also get to see Clary's face for once... I love the series but I don't like the smaller font for the title of the book...
i think it looks good, except for the fact that the 'clary' model doesn't depict clary at all. she's too old. i don't like it when covers have a model that doesn't look like the characters in a book. but i really like the colours and the red mist :)
I like that this second installment of the series is going to feature two characters per cover... Maybe we will get Magnus on one of the covers!
:g: Fun to read and I loved the flow of the story. All the twists kept the intrigue and I am totally looking forward to reading more from this author.
