The Story: After Sixteen year old Tessa Gray's aunt and caregiver dies she receives a letter from her older brother asking her to make the long voyage from her home in New York to London England. Filling her with hope that she can resume her normal life with the comfort of her only living relative.
But, when she arrives in London she's greeted by Mrs. Dark and Mrs. Black. The "dark sisters" she finds, are less than agreeable. As they force her to find her undiscovered secret ability she tumbles through a life changing shift of discovering her hidden talent of shape shifting. As the story unfolds she creates new friends and allies called the Shadowhunters. Set in the Victorian London underworld, in the prequel series to The Mortal Instruments, Shadowhunters are barely winning against the forces of evil.

Opinion: Clockwork Angel was phenomenal. Though I did find that the book ended leaving me with more questions than answers. It was beautifully entrancing. The character development was also wonderful! You end up so connected with the odd family of the shadow hunters. The main character Tessa is so relatable and honestly a wonderful heroine. This epic story would make a wonderful movie:) I'd give it a full five stars. I cant wait for Clockowrk Prince!
