Clockwork Prince

By Cassandra Clare
498 pages

There have been some other recent reviews of the second book in the Infernal Devices series, so I won’t spend time on the story.  I enjoyed this book much more than the first in the series.  I felt the story moved at a better pace and the characters came into their own (in the first book I felt the characters were too similar to those in Clare’s first series, The Mortal Instruments).  Where I was indifferent before, I am now looking forward to the next installment!
