Really Cassandra Clare you're going to divide a short story into two separate stories? Why even bother having Simon in it at all? If you want to tell the story of a Herondale then do it, don't hide it within another that is supposed to be about Simon. And good God, the repetitive use of language. How many times can you repeat words in a paragraph? This story told us nothing about Simon. We only see him fall out of a tree and write a note. Yay, awesome I spent money on a worthless tale! I don't give a flying hoot about Jack the Ripper. Ok so we hear a bit more about Jace's family. Give Jace his own series of short stories. Don't play on the fans love of Jace to sell your damn short story you didn't have enough material to go off of before your deadline hit. What the hell happened to the phenomenal story telling we saw in Mortal Instruments? Where's the hook, the emotional bond we were able to develop with the characters? I question if it is even worth it to buy the next one. Put some damn effort into these and make it worth my money.
