Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare

Magic is dangerous but love is more dangerous still. When sixteen-year-old Tessa Gray crosses the ocean to find her brother, her destination is England, the time is the reign of Queen Victoria, and something terrifying is waiting for her in London's Downworld, where vampires, warlocks and other supernatural folk stalk the gaslit streets. Only the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the world of demons, keep order amidst the chaos. Kidnapped by the mysterious Dark Sisters, members of a secret organization called The Pandemonium Club, Tessa soon learns that she herself is a Downworlder with a rare ability: the power to transform, at will, into another person. What’s more, the Magister, the shadowy figure who runs the Club, will stop at nothing to claim Tessa's power for his own. Friendless and hunted, Tessa takes refuge with the Shadowhunters of the London Institute, who swear to find her brother if she will use her power to help them. She soon finds herself fascinated by and torn between two best friends: James, whose fragile beauty hides a deadly secret, and blue-eyed Will, whose caustic wit and volatile moods keep everyone in his life at arm's length . . . everyone, that is, but Tessa. As their search draws them deep into the heart of an arcane plot that threatens to destroy the Shadowhunters, Tessa realizes that she may need to choose between saving her brother and helping her new friends save the world. . . . and that love may be the most dangerous magic of all.
My Review : Cassandra Clare does it again....... 5/5 Stars... okay guys let me tell you that the Mortal Instrument series by Cassandra Clare is my favorite series of all time. so when i found out there was a prequel series called the infernal devices. i jumped on amazon to get it and i was so not disappointed in the least with this book. Clockwork Angel is the first book in this series. so this book follow Tessa Grey who moves to find her brother to live with him well let just say that is not exactly what does down. instead Tessa is kidnapped by two ladies called the Dark sisters, who claim her brother send them to take Tessa throughout the city of London. instead we find out that The dark sister are in fact warlocks who work for the mystery man known as the Magister who wants to marry Tessa for some unknown reason. soon later Tessa is saved by the shadowhunter who protect the world from demons and Tessa is allowed to say at the London Institute and learns that she is in fact a downworlder with a power no one has ever seen before the power to turn herself into another person which i think is just awesome just saying. things get really intense when we find out that a man knows as Mortmain who seems to know more of shadowhunter world that he should sense he is in fact a mundane and that he is responsible for these clockwork creates that are not make by heaven or hell which is scare indeed to the Shadowhunters. over all i very much enjoyed this book Cassandra Clare has such a way of writing that i was blown away at like every other chapter. there are lots of twists in the mortal instruments series but the ones in clockwork angel i was sitting there thinking WTF.............. where in the hell did that come from................. but yes i really really really enjoyed this book i really loved that it look place in 1878 in the Victorian London time period totally awesome.... 5/5 stars :D if you would like to see my video review on clockwork angel please click the link below and enjoy :D : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQF97L...
