And it keeps ticking

I enjoyed the conclusion to the Clockwork trilogy but I felt it was rough to get through in parts. Some of the drama gets a bit tiresome and hurts the fluidity of the book. Overall, the story is good, you see a bit deeper in to the characters. And after one of the main thread-lines from the trilogy is wrapped up, the author does take the time to bring many of the other treads and character outcomes to a natural conclusion. The end will leave you with a sad place in your heart but with hope to expand into it.

Third time reading and it only gets better.

Loved this series. Bought it for my daughter and after several years she talked me into reading it. Now with audible I can listen to it while I work. I recommended to all young and old. It won't disappoint.

sad to see it end

great ending although heart wrenching at the same time. wish it would have kept going but all good things must come to an end.

Was sad when it ended

Any additional comments?

Excellent series. To me, this series is best of all the Cassandra Claire Series. All books in the series as good as the first.

It was so AWESOME not what I expected how it would end love every minute of it😃😍😘 my favorite thrilogy😃😃☺️

Huh??

I loved this story, but at times when he was speaking in a whisper it was so low I had to turn my volume to max and rewind. Otherwise it was a great full circle.

Thoroughly enjoyed- some spoilers

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I already have. I enjoyed this series more than I am enjoying The Immortal Devices series- but I am biased as I love historical fiction. This book in particular, was a pleasure because it did not disappoint as a compelling finale to the trilogy....an unusual find.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Clockwork Princess?

The epilogue. I can't stop thinking about it even today. I'm note sure everyone will feel the same way I did-Spoiler AlertI was annoyed, 1st off because Tessa is demon enough to live forever, but shadow hunter enough to have children- yet, she never adequately explained that. But mostly I was surprised that she chose to allow a bittersweet ending where the heroine...sort of has her cake and eats it too? I mean, how often does a gal get to have both men she loves? At first I couldn't decide if I was completely touched at the possibility of sharing two lifetimes of love...or angry at the possible betrayal it should have been. But then I realized that both men were constantly painted as being selfless toward each other and both would have gained comfort in knowing the other was happy. So, In truth it was the best outcome to any love triangle where you root for each member. But every once in a while I think...well crap...It'll just be the boys anyway in the "afterlife" often mentioned- so, I think they get the better end of the deal. Sucks to love a half demon that lives forever, eh? Or...will Tessa be shadow hunter enough to join them? That would be awkward.

What does Daniel Sharman bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I loved the narrator in this story. Particularly because his accents were so good- Welsh, English, American- all excellent. Great voice too. Loved him. And that's saying a lot- usually I prefer female narrators because male narrators usually botch up female voices. Daniel did a decent job- would definitely look forward to any books he narrates in future.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Will suffers the loss of his parabatai, and the appearance and farewell of Brother Zachariah.

So good

If you could sum up The Clockwork Princess in three words, what would they be?

A Satisfying end

What did you like best about this story?

It managed to end with every character winning and was an exciting end to a great series.

What about Daniel Sharman’s performance did you like?

His voice fit the book so well and his accents were great with smooth transitions.

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

Defiantly the emotional end to this series. I cried a couple of times which I expected with the tangled love triangle.

Loved it!

Great story arch and character development. Voice actor (?) had great rythmn personality and pacing. the Single voice which was a little odd initally for the girl charaters however after a few minutes i barely noticed.

great book would recommend to anyone who enjoys this genre.

Great Series, Great Story, you'll love it!

Loved the series, loved the writer, enjoyed the narritor. All characher voices represented well.This wraps up the 3 book trilogy very well. Also sheds some light onto The Mortal Instruments Magnus Bane.
