If you're searching for insights into the meaning of life, or words of inspiration to make your life more meaningful, there's no better source than authors of great works of literature. From Shakespeare to Alice Walker, from Jane Austen to Saul Bellow, iconic authors have a lot to say about life.

Oh Wow! Amazing story.

What made the experience of listening to The Clockwork Princess the most enjoyable?

Daniel Sharman really made me feel the characters and I really liked the love triangle that was not a betrayal. It also gave me a little bit of where the Shadow Hunters came from in the Mortal Instruments series.

What other book might you compare The Clockwork Princess to and why?

I don't think there is another book to compare it to.

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

Daniel Sharman really made me feel the emotions of the characters and connect with them.

Any additional comments?

I wish Daniel Sharman would've narrated the other books in the series. He is awesome!

A favourite

So well written and thought out. I loved all of the characters. They made mistakes but were strong and forgivable. So much better than the other shadow hunter series (especially the soap opera style TV series that came from it)- I wanted to smack “Clarie” every other sentence in those novels! However, in contrast, Will, Charlotte, Jem, Tessa and the rest, all were well developed and lovable! The very end was like the little gift at the bottom of the bag that ties everything together, just when you though that it was empty.

All questions answered

Would you listen to The Clockwork Princess again? Why?

Having finished listening to the third book, I'd go back to listen to the series again. Heartache and victory were keenly felt in the third installment.

What did you like best about this story?

I love when Tessa took on the form of the angel to defeat Mortmaine (is that spelled correctly? I listened and never read the book). I also loved that Tessa was able to have her second love as well.

What about Daniel Sharman’s performance did you like?

Mr. Sharman made each character come alive and made them each individual. His voice was very interesting. Very pleasant to listen to.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Currently it is 4:00am. I'd put my earbuds in my ears to listen until I fell asleep. I had to finish to see what's happened next.

Any additional comments?

Having listened to this series, I want to start the mortal instruments again. One question. Wouldn't it have been A nice reward if Tessa, having freed the angel's spirit burned the demon half of allowing her to become a shadow hunter? But then I guess she'd not been immortal. Anyway, this book tied up the loose ends. I'm a sucker for happy endings.

A Roller Coaster Ride To The Finish!

Where does The Clockwork Princess rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The final book in this trilogy could only be better if it promised a fourth. Casandra Claire takes us on a spectacular ride with the characters we know and love. She pushes your emotions as lives twine together and come apart. If you liked her first book in this series, than you will love this one.

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

Life, death, or the chance to become something altogether different. Many characters will face this choice and each one finds out in the end its not the choice they make but how they make it.

Which character – as performed by Daniel Sharman – was your favorite?

I greatly enjoyed Will's sister Cecili. She is preformed as charismatic and unforgettable.

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

The cast of characters deliver a full range of human emotion so everyone will be effected by the book. There is pain and sorrow, Will's witty remarks, scenes of romantic humor, and quiet passion. A complete book to complete a fantastic series.

Good narrator

Best narrator of this series, too bad he didn't narrate the whole series. The narrator's of the 2 previous books were unfortunate selections.

Narrator is amazing

This narrator needs to read more books. He's amazing. He has voices for everyone and they're different.
