The Clockwork Prince

The Infernal Devices, Book 2

By: Cassandra Clare

Narrated by: Ed Westwick, Heather Lind

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 excusive 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.

Great book

I love the series I thought it was great listening. Storyline is fantastic in the readers were great
I definitely recommend series

Ed Westwick is amazing!

Can we please have Ed Westwick re-narrate all of Cassandra Claire's books? His voice is so captivating.

glad i stuck with the story

i struggled to get thru the first book because i felt the narrator wasn't doing it justice. but i sure glad i finished it and moved onto the second. what a great book with intriguing characters. i really love the two narrators i think they nailed it.

Teenage Angst

Would you listen to The Clockwork Prince again? Why?

Yes, I enjoy the worlds of magic that Clare creates and would like to hear the details again.

Would you recommend The Clockwork Prince to your friends? Why or why not?

It depends on how old they are. Teenage girls would like it (as two great boys vie for the same girl), but the "love" story was tiresome for me.

What about Ed Westwick and Heather Lind ’s performance did you like?

I was glad that they actually didn't only narrate all male or all female characters. Sometimes it can be choppy to have male and female performers trade off.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No, extreme reaction. I liked how it ended and want to read the next book.

Any additional comments?

I only read one of the Twilight books and found them too tiresome. I hope that Clare doesn't perceive her universe as competing with that one--it is way better--more believable and interesting.

One of my favorite series of all time

Loved Ed. Not so much Heather. I liked her normal voice but I didn't like a lot of the voices she did for other characters
