![]() ![]() ![]() Which yes, makes James/Jamie: Pip, and Grace: Estella. The answer is: yes, TLH is based on Great Expectations, just like The Infernal Devices is based on Tale of Two Cities. As in, very loosely based! But those who are familiar with GE probably recognized in The Midnight Heir some of the bones of the plot of Great Expectations: the parallels between Lightwood Manor and Satis House, the fact that Tatiana is still wearing the same dress in TMH that she wore in Clockwork Princess, just like Miss Havisham always wore her wedding dress - the reiteration of “love her, love her, love her.” ![]() I kind of figured people would be confused! Havisham thing? And why does James marry Codelia? Are your other stories based off of classics as well? Also, how the heck does Lucie marry Jesse, he’s dead (or is he)?! And isn’t he like 10 years older than her? And are you going to revisit the TLH picture that Cassandra Jean drew? Sorry that’s a lot of questions. The story is kind of based off of Great Expectations, right? Are there going to be more similarities, or do the parallels stop at the Grace=Estella, Tatiana=Ms. And James… they call him Jamie? That is beyond cute. First of all, I thought it was so cute when Jem, Will, and Tessa were all there. “I just read the Midnight Heir, it was great :) I have so many questions. For those who haven’t read The Midnight Heir, this is spoilery for both TMH, and Clockwork Princess. ![]()
