About this listen

In the sequel to Clockwork Boys, Slate, Brenner, Caliban and Learned Edmund have arrived in Anuket City, the source of the mysterious Clockwork Boys. They even managed to build some trust in each other's skills. That trust is built on quicksand as the risks continue to escalate. But the secrets they're keeping could well destroy them, before the city even gets the chance...

Old foes and consequences of past decisions lurk in the shadows. Every team member's skills are required to succeed - even more so if they hope to survive.

The Wonder Engine never lets us forget our funny, broken group even as the action propels our heroes to new highs and lows. It shows that making the most of the rest of your life can be rewarding - no matter how many mechanical abominations you need to destroy to get there.

I enjoyed this book just as much as the first! The loved the combination of internal and external narratives that drove the story on, and the introduction of a few new characters kept things really interesting.

A great sequel

I was totally hooked on this, and the one before.
I honestly think they are some of my favourite fantasy characters ever! The story was gripping and the characters felt like friends. I loved it so much!

so, the thing is. This was stil a good book. I enjoyed it. it is however not as good as her newer books. it's been nice to see where all the inside jokes and lore comes from but the plot felt a little rushed. it felt more like a romance book than people trying to end a war. the twist ending WAS very good and surprising and the characters reacted appropriately (for the most part, I think). I liked the book, but I don't think I'll come back to listen to it again like I did with the newer books. if you do decide to listen to it , ENJOY!

the plot is a bit rushed
