Clockwork Prince (The Infernal Devices, Book Two)by Cassandra Clare
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The Clockwork Prince is the second book in the Infernal Devices series, which is a precursor to the Mortal Instruments series.
In the Clockwork Prince we continue to follow Tessa Gray as she tries to discover more about who and what she is, and the London Institute as they try to find and defeat Mortmain.
This book grows each of the characters in age and maturity. We learn more about Tessa and her brother Nate, Jem and Will and even Jessamine. We watch the friendships and affections between the people grow and become more and shape and influence decisions that they make.
Familiar family names from the Mortal Instruments series can be found in this book, but as the shadowhunters are an elite lineage that should be expected. We find some bad apples in some family trees.
I found myself hoping for and enjoying the development of a relationship with Tessa and Jem, I found it true and innocent and refreshing, especially in a world filled with demons and conflict. i long for the next book and the resolution to the story, and the hopes for a happy ending.
