My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Following on from the first book in the series we pick back up the story of Arabella. When I started reading this book I wasn’t sure which direction it would go in, given how unexpected I found the first book to be. I thought this book was a great follow on. I still struggled to connect with the main character, and I did feel like I enjoyed the first book a bit more, but I found myself connecting with the storyline just like with the first. I think part of what intrigues me with this series is that fact that I can’t decide what genre it would fall under. There is a little mix of everything thrown in there. This as a good book and I will be reading the next one.

I feel the author got a better chance in this book. Arebella comes more alive in this book. It flows better as well and you feel more invested in the characters and story.

The Clockwork Solution is the second instalment in The Clockwork Chronicles series by Michelle D. Sonnier. After reading the first instalment in this fun series, I was intrigued by what this story would hold.
It is another young adult story- a sci-fi/steampunk/gaslight fantasy with magic, witches, danger, technomancy, drama, and more.
We re-join Arabella in this story as she sets off on her first assignment- to uncover what’s causing the famine in Ireland. There is a lot riding on the outcome of her investigation, and Arabella feels the weight of responsibility on her shoulders. Two witches have already lost their lives in this quest- so now Arabella’s life is also on the line. What happens makes for a fun read.
This ends with a cliffhanger, eeep- so will have to wait for the next book to see what happens next.
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Michelle D. Sonnier!

This is the second book in the series. I am not sure what genre this falls under, paranormal or fantasy or steampunk. But I have decided it fits best under Gaslamp Fantasy. It does ends rather suddenly with cliff-hangers. The concept is interesting with a lot of potential. There are witches and magic, mysteries and trials and tribulations, danger. It is fast paced with an intriguing plot.
Arabella is tasked by the witch’s council to investigate rumours of a famine in Ireland. Will she uncover the truth, or will she face roadblocks by those who hates witches?

This was a great second edition the the Clockwork Chronicles series! The author didn’t lose any momentum with her second book and I found the continuation of the story to be in perfect harmony with the first book! There is clearly so much thought put into this and the characters are easy to love! Glad I grabbed this one and can’t wait to see what else she comes out with!

I really had a lot of enjoyment reading this novel. I had not read the previous one, but I certainly will be now. I rally loved how the story came together with the characters. It was fun, and full of surprises, and it certainly kept me on my toes. It was very delightful to read from start to finish.

For me I loved the character’s and their personalities. i loved how different they were and could be. There was no awkward meshing, everything blended together perfectly. They made the story intriguing and full of wonder. I enjoyed all of the character development seen as well.

I enjoyed the adventure of the plot as well. it was different, and seriously I wanted to join the Sisterhood of Witches myself haha. Arabella was a strong character who had her own character development had really added to the events of the plot. I loved how her decisions made such a impact. Great read!

loved this book truly, and this was a first time author for me as well. Defiantly will be reading more of their work I recommend this author book, as well as this series. Not ones to be missed!

This is the second book in this series which is just as great as the first one. This is a well written story by an author that has great writing skills and their use of attention to details made the story realistic. I enjoyed being pulled into the story by the characters who made the story easy to read. This is a fast paced scientific fantasy story that was not only hard to put down but also kept me turning pages fast just to see what would happen next. I really enjoyed what the characters brought to the story and their growth throughout. The growth of the plot also made the story great. This is a great story that I highly recommend picking up today.

Treated with disdain by her family her entire life for not living up to their expectations—or prophesy—Arabella Leyden forges her own path and attains her greatest wish: to join the Sisterhood of Witches, doing so in a manner no one ever anticipated.
As the first-ever technomancer, the way before her is fraught with peril. Can she survive the machinations of her order, or be ground between the gears of reluctant progress?
More important yet, can she succeed at her first assignment: find the root cause of the famine sweeping through Ireland? And end it. A task that has already claimed two witches of the Sortilege line.
Her future hangs in the balance… perhaps even her very life…
