Clockwork Prince


Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Claire - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Description from the Publisher

True love is shrouded in secrets and lies in the enchanting second “steamy, steampunk drama” (Los Angeles Times) in the #1 New York Times bestselling Infernal Devices trilogy, prequel to the internationally bestselling Mortal Instruments series—now with a gorgeous new cover, a map, a new foreword, and exclusive bonus content! Clockwork Prince is a Shadowhunters novel.

In the magical underworld of Victorian London, Tessa Gray has found safety with the Shadowhunters. But that safety proves fleeting when it becomes clear that the mysterious Magister will stop at nothing to use Tessa’s powers for his own dark ends.

With the help of the handsome, tortured Will and the devoted Jem, Tessa discovers that the Magister’s war on the Shadowhunters is deeply personal and fueled by revenge. To unravel the secrets of the past, the trio journeys from mist-shrouded Yorkshire to a manor house that holds untold horrors. When they encounter a clockwork demon bearing a warning for Will, they realize that the Magister knows their every move—and that one of their own has betrayed them.

Tessa is drawn more and more to Jem, though her longing for Will continues to unsettle her. But something is changing in Will. Could finding the Magister free Will from his secrets and give Tessa answers about who she really is? As their search leads to deadly peril, Tessa learns that secrets and lies can corrupt even the purest heart.

My Review

Oh, Cassandra Claire, you have done it again! You break my heart every time, and I love you for it. Once again we are taken to Victorian London to continue the story that began with Clockwork Angel. The character development in this book is excellent, most particularly Will, who grew SO MUCH in this book! Clockwork Prince is action packed from beginning to end and introduces readers to more characters in the Shadowhunter world. This book is humorous, and the plot twists are amazing. The love triangle between Tessa, Will, and Jem also continues and made me feel so many emotions. My heart is broken, and I cannot wait for it to happen again in the next book, Clockwork Princess.
