WARNING!
Do NOT read this post if you plan to/are currently reading the Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare, unless you want the ENTIRE plot twist revealed to you!!!Last night while I was reading, if nearly fell out of bed when I got to the MAJOR climax... Jace ISN'T Clary's biological brother! I think it's safe to say that my reaction and Clary's paralleled each other pretty well;
"Clary." ... "There's more that I have to tell you..."
"Jace is Valentine's son. I mean, who else could he be?"
Jocelyn looked straight into her daughter's eyes. "The night Celine Herondale had died, she was eight months pregnant. Valentine had been giving her potions, powders- he was trying on her what he'd tried on himself, with Ithurial's blood, hoping that Stephen's child would be as strong and powerful as he suspected Jonathan would be, but without Jonathan's worse qualities. He couldn't bear that his experiment would go to waste, so with Hodge's help he cut the baby out of Celine's stomach. She'd only been dead a short time-"
This means that Clary will now likely be in search of Jace before he does something that they'll all regret. He's in the mindset that he's a monster, and therefore has nothing to lose; now with this new revelation, it's clear that he does. This just goes to show how well-planned twists and climaxes really can make a HUGE difference for the reader!
