Surprisingly good. I’m not sure what I was expecting, having never read steampunk before, but I enjoyed the Victorian setting, the clockwork monsters – all reminding me of Doctor Who – and the early insights into the Clave and the Shadowhunter families.

I liked most of the characters, especially Jem and Will. They were my favorites. Overall, it was a pretty good book. Going to read the sequel soon.

Thoroughly enjoyed the story. The characters were strong and well formed and each of the main characters had their own distinct voice. Seamless story-tellin ...more
