Invincible
by Sherrilyn Kenyon
This book kicks off right where we stopped in Infinity. Just like the last book, Kenyon keeps up the pace she created. Nick is still a smart-ass and mouths off left and right -- one of his biggest strengths and weaknesses.
More questions are answered in this book, including some that were obvious to the reader in Infinity, but now have revealed themselves to Nick as well. It will be interesting how these unearthed truths effect him and his relationships with others. So far it seems to be okay, but that could easily change. The life of a normal teenager, with all the hormones included, can create quite a storm at the drop of a hat. With Nick, this means he's even more susceptible.
I loved the character development that we experienced with Mark and Bubba! For me, this definitely explained some of the idiosyncrasies the two of them do. They both seemed so crazy and eccentric in the first book, but now we have been let in on some of the sadness that happened previous to our, and Nick's, meeting of them. I absolutely loved the tender moment spent between Bubba and Nick. So sweet to see them understand one another on a personal level, when previously it was just a bunch of jokes about computers and what "Triple B" stands for. I'm sure more development will occur with them in the books to follow, and hopefully with other characters too. I would love to learn more about Nick's mother, Cherise, and his employers, Kyrain and Acheron.
My favorite part in the book had to beKody's speech on the small moments in life. This is something that I often think about on a daily basis. What if I got up a little earlier or a little later? What if I cooked breakfast or if I went out? Would I meet the love of my life at the local diner before I even finish my coffee? Will I, God forbid, get into a terrible accident on the way there? Kody's discussion with Nick was reassuring to the beliefs I already have, but I could imagine this being even more eye-opening for the target audience of this series, roughly high-school aged kids.
I'm excited to see how Nick takes on the rest of this series, now knowing who he is and the power he is capable of. He appears to have many trustworthy friends around him, one of them even being a girlfriend, but with that cliff-hanger ending...who will betray him?
I immediately wanted to continue reading this series, but I had the last novel of the House of Night: Otherworld series come in the mail as I was finishing Invincible. Temptation for the HoN: Otherworld novel overpowered the temptation to continue on in The Chronicles of Nick with Infamous. Soon though, I'll be back devouring the next four books in this series. I need to know what Nick gets himself into next!
