Hours went by unnoticed and the light streaming through the windows slowly dimmed. While the world thrived around me, I sat frozen in time finishing this book. My thought process was narrowed entirely around this book. Time seemed irrelevant. Clockwork Prince caught my attention much more than Clockwork Angel and forced me to finish it in a matter of days. I couldn't put it down. What seemed predictable in the first book twisted and developed into new and exciting plotlines. I was ecstatically surprised by this book, and am already well on my way into reading the third book.
