Infinty(Chronicles of Nick #1)

Infinity (Chronicles of Nick, #1)Infinity Summary:
At fourteen, Nick Gautier thinks he knows everything about the world around him. Streetwise, tough and savvy, his quick sarcasm is the stuff of legends. . .until the night when his best friends try to kill him. Saved by a mysterious warrior who has more fighting skills than Chuck Norris, Nick is sucked into the realm of the Dark-Hunters: immortal vampire slayers who risk everything to save humanity. Nick quickly learns that the human world is only a veil for a much larger and more dangerous one: a world where the captain of the football team is a werewolf and the girl he has a crush on goes out at night to stake the undead. But before he can even learn the rules of this new world, his fellow students are turning into flesh eating zombies. And he's next on the menu. As if starting high school isn't hard enough. . .now Nick has to hide his new friends from his mom, his chainsaw from the principal, and keep the zombies and the demon Simi from eating his brains, all without getting grounded or suspended. How in the world is he supposed to do that?

Infinity Review:
Infinity was a very refreshing novel. It hardly have any romance or the romance was not a major major part of the novel. It's pretty hard to find a YA novel that doesn't have a main factor of romance in the novel. Other than that, the main character is a guy which is also very rare, at least for me. The guy was sassy for once which never seems to happen, the sass is saved for the girls. The girls in this novel are not weak, not the main and if they are they have the high school popularity attitude to make them seem strong.

I love all the characters in this book and I like how everyone acts tough but they are all softies inside. There are a lot of characters in the novel and sometimes I would get messed up on all the character names and forget some as the characters progressed. Don't worry though you really won't forget the main character names. I really Kryian and Ash and how much they mean to Nick and vice versa. They really did help Nick grow up and without them I don't think he would have gotten as far as he did. The older version of Nick, I really didn't like him because he wasn't anything like Nick. Caleb was really awesome him being almost a double agent. His motives are unclear like Nekoda, but that just makes it more interesting. Nekoda is interesting because she's also like a double agent, and I found the romance between her and Nick cute. They didn't do major romance so I'm happy for that because there are many books that have enough of that. Cherise was kind of annoying in this book because she really didn't trust Nick and wouldn't let him defend himself. Otherwise she was a completely loving woman and you see how much she truly loves him when she took care of him since he was 14 and won't let anything happen to him. Nick was witty and very humorous. He knew how to joke around and acted like a normal high school kid even after all he has been through. It's funny to watch his mom beat Nick when she's way shorter and weaker than Nick.

The plot was really good and it kept you very interested. The books after this are going to be as good as this if not better. Interesting idea with the Greek mythology and traditional folklore. The Dark-Hunter series is supposed to be like this as well but for adults so you can try that out if you want.
