Taken from Goodreads:
In magical Victorian London, orphan Tessa found safety with the Shadowhunters, until traitors betray her to the Magister. He wants to marry her, but so do self-destructive Will and fiercely devoted Jem. Mage Magnus Bane returns to help them. Secrets to her parentage lie with the mist-shrouded Yorkshire Institute's aged manager Alyosius Starkweather.
This book, this trilogy is amazing!
I seriously have little to no issues with any of it. I think that it was superbly written. The setting of a slightly altered Victorian England is interesting and magnificent. The characters feel very real and you develop a relationship with them based on either love or hate.
I found myself completely zoned out while reading it. Zoned out like I didn't realize anyone else was in the room with me. It's truly that captivating.
I don't want to give any spoilers away, but I will say that I have a new found appreciation for Will. I believe that the first book was written so that we would misjudge him, and Clockwork Prince clarifies some of the reasons why Will is who he is.
We see the relationships between several of the characters tested in different ways. Some prove themselves more worthy than previously thought, and others less.
I can't wait to read Clockwork Princess!
I rated this book 5 out of 5 stars on Goodreads.
