The main focus of the Infernal Devices is on the clockwork creatures thathave been invading the Shadowhunters' peace for quite sometime now. A werewolf here, a faerie there, but Their presence is not as remarkable as in Cassandra's THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS series. A great part of the story is about the relationships of the Shadow Hunters and Their friends and the power struggles of the Clave. Its relationships are as nifty and delicate as in a Jane Austen novel, its battle scenes and imaginative storyline uniquely Cassandra Clare.
Will and Jem are truly a gift. This book is Cassandra Clare's best so far, so her hardest and most sincere. Big parts of it are about facing death and what it Means to lose the people you truly love so much, you simple can not bear to be without them.
Jem and Will are friends and the best team! In Clockwork Princess Cassandra Clare explores the possibilities of two great loves in one life and the endless boundaries of a true friendship. Friends, almost like brothers, do not Necessarily need to become enemies Because They are in love with the same girl. And Said girl does not always have to be the one pressured. Tessa is very strong and headstrong and luckily has the capacities to decide on her own.
Unsurprisingly, Clockwork Princess continued the love triangle between Tessa, Jem and Will and acted on its threats to cause heartbreak for everyone involved, Regardless of Whether you are rooting for one or the other boy.
There's much time to untangle personal relationships and issues of all kinds. Each couple is different in its own wonderful way and it was a pleasure to get to know them better Individually and as a pair. Gabriel, Gideon, Cecily, Will, Jem, Tessa, Charlotte, Henry, Sophie, Magnus.
Cassandra Clare found fluent passages from one chapter, one story, to the next and everything's very consistent.
I was so thankful for the last hundred pages of this book. Cassandra Clare did not end the fight and with it the story. She gave us and her characters time to say goodbye. Mellow and intimate. Words I needed to read, secrets I wanted to know. Overall a well-rounded trilogy. The ending had a very Downton Abbey Christmas special feel about it and it made me feel so good about the characters and increibly the story and everything at That Moment.
Some things, I knew, were inevitable. Yet reading about them, broke my heart, every single word equaling a teary sob. I had not expected to happen did and it got even worse towards the epilogue. The epilogue. You might have heard about it by now. The epilogue is everything all at once. How can you have a happy ending and at the sametime you are only partly happy about it?
And I just could not resist to compose a little song for my favorite Shadowhunter:
Shadowhunters break my heart,
With Their sweetness, kindred souls,
off to bake a duckling tarte,
for my sweet sweet Will.
5/5 ***** Clockwork Princess - YA dreams come to fulfillment. Brilliant and all-consuming!
I can wholeheartedly say, this is one of my favorite series, even among the favorites! Reading Clockwork Princess was marvelous just! Cassandra Clare has found a writing voice That draws you into her stories like no other. CLOCKWORK priness is her best book so far, making the THE INFERNAL DEVICES series so incredibly hard not to adore.
