The Infernal Devices - Book 1

Tessa Gray descends into Victorian London's dark underworld to search for her missing brother, with the mysterious Shadowhunters as her only allies.




I am so thrilled to return to the World of Cassandra Clare’s Nephilim. She never disappoints, and unlike most YA Books, her Heroin is strong and admirable. When, at the time, Mortal Instruments, was done and through, I was heart broken to see the story end. Now, she has returned us to that world, with a whole new set of characters. Characters that deal with difficult, daily struggles and even though they may not be of ‘Norm’ you have to admire how they find a way to get through them. (I’m tired of reading chapters of heroin’s whining over chipped manicures, or silly immature boyfriends.) Clockwork Angel, had me enchanted from beginning to end. CC knows how to grab hold of her readers, leaving you satisfied in the end, yet driving you mad with anticipation for her next book in the series. I would definitely recommend this book, as well as her others and I can’t wait to grab hold of the next book in the Infernal Devices Series.
