Infinity

I enjoy listening to young adult / teen books, though I'm well past my young adult years. In this book, good guys are sometimes bad, and bad guys sometimes do good. The ending left me interested to learn more in the next book. Sherilyn Kenyon has done a good job translating her series for adults into the YA market. Lots of action, though sometimes the main character seemed a lot "older" than 14 in his reasoning and abilities, which was jarring. Lots of fun characters, including Bubba the genius-IQ, MIT-degreed zombie killer and his sidekick Mark. I'm not a fan of "we can't explain it with science, so let's just say it's magic," which occurred a good bit in the book. The relationship between Nick and his mom is central to the book, and SK does a very good job with it.

What did you love best about Infinity?This history of Nick is quite impressive. It certainly gave me a glimpse into his attitude, his wit and his fearlessness. I think my favorite aspect of this book is the gritty determination of Nick, not taking life in stride, but overcoming his obstacles with humor and an innate sense of what is right for him, his moral code. He may not follow any one else's rules, but he is true to his own.What did you like best about this story?Learning that Ambrose truly wishes he could help Nick escape the future that enslaved him.Which scene was your favorite?When Nick discovers that his own code, his own sense of justice is what he must live for.If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?One catastrophe at a time......Any additional comments?I love this author. I learn something from her books, so not only is she entertaining, she is educational. She offers a sarcastic life view that is oddly refreshing!

If you could sum up Infinity in three words, what would they be?Enjoyable, fast, and wildWhat did you like best about this story?The fact the book was enjoyable not only to teens but adults.My 14 yr old boy keep asking if we could listen to this book on a long road trip.This was the first indication this book was a winner.Which character – as performed by Holter Graham – was your favorite?Bubba and his sidekick especially when the sidekick decked out in his swamp hunting suit.Just so freakin' funny.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?Nick meeting Simi for the first time is hilarious.Anything to do with Simi in this series is hilarious.
