Since it is tradition, here is my review for Chain of Iron. Happy reading once you have your copy/copies. I am so happy Chain of Iron is finally out in the world and can be bought in book shops or online. Happy book birthday to Cassandra Clare and her new release Chain of Iron! ❤ Pretty much almost a year after the publication of the first The Last Hours novel Chain of Gold, we can now dive into/devour book two.
