Infamous

Chronicles of Nick

De: Sherrilyn Kenyon

Narrado por: Holter Graham

The world has fallen in love with Nick Gautier and Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark-Hunter novels.

Now Nick's saga continues in Infamous, the next eagerly anticipated volume in the Chronicles of Nick series...

Go to school. Get good grades. Stay out of trouble. That's the mandate for most kids. But Nick Gautier isn't the average teenager. He's a boy with a destiny not even he fully understands. And his first mandate is to stay alive while everyone, even his own father, tries to kill him.

He's learned to annihilate zombies and raise the dead, divination and clairvoyance, so why is learning to drive and keep a girlfriend so dang hard? But that isn't the primary skill he has to master. Survival is.

And in order to survive, his next lesson makes all the others pale in comparison. He is on the brink of becoming either the greatest hero mankind has ever known.

Or he'll be the one who ends the world. With enemies new and old gathering forces, he will have to call on every part of himself to fight or he'll lose everyone he cares about.

Even himself.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Alternating tones, pacing, and inflections to voice all the characters, Graham smoothly narrates this action-packed, suspenseful tale, a must-listen for series fans.” —Booklist

“[A] publishing phenomenon…[Sherrilyn Kenyon is] the reigning queen of the wildly successful paranormal scene. . .Just one example of arguably the most in-demand and prolific authors in America these days.” —Publisher's Weekly

“Kenyon's writing is brisk, ironic and relentless imaginative. These are not your mother's vampire novels.” —Boston Globe

“[An] engaging read.” —Entertainment Weekly

Will Nick be infamous for Good or for Evil?

Nick is growing up but is he going to fulfill his destiny for good or for evil? This books turns from the previous two because it is a little more serious and, while it still has humor, it doesn't leave you laughing till you cry over crazy shirts. You start to understand more about who Nick really is and why the people around him have made the choices they did. After all, the choices we make are what put us on the path we follow. But as our favorite DH says, just because we can do something doesn't mean you should. Nick faces that scenario several times in this installment you won't be able to put down and will have you begging for you more as it ends.

YA Novel interesting enough for all Adults

If you could sum up Infamous in three words, what would they be?

Interesting, Entertaining, Engaging

Who was your favorite character and why?

Nick, of course. He is such a wonderful character, his dual nature makes him incredibly interesting and his choices and decisions show that he is trying so hard to continually do the rigth thing regardless of what everyone keeps telling him. He is determined not to let others dictate his future.

What does Holter Graham bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Holter Graham has definately embodied the character of Nick. He reads as if the story is, indeed, his and the emotional depth he brings to the character is one of the best things about listening to the book.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I think Nick's regard for his mom is heartfelt. Though I do not think they really understand each other and the constant whining and badgering of his mom makes me realize even more how much Nick cares for her that he just stands and takes all she dishes out.

Any additional comments?

Very enjoyable series. I am looking forward to hearing more from Nick and finding out if he is "master of his own fate".

The Story Just Keeps Getting Better!

What did you love best about Infamous?

Nick's way of handling the dude who harassed Wren in the bar...

Who was your favorite character and why?

Well, Nick was my favorite character because the whole series revolves around his struggle to maintain equilibrium between being a human being and a super power. That he has no real training on how to handle deadly power with conscience and heart.

What does Holter Graham bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Soul. No kidding, Holter brings life to the words and makes the story really suspend reality for the listener. His range of voice and tone fits this goth series to a "T".

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

There are always hugely funny moments in Kenyon's books and the Chronicles of Nick are no exception so yes, I laughed out loud in places.

Any additional comments?

If you're a Chronicles of Nick fan already, what can I say? More great story here and listening to it read by Holter is a treat worthy of a Broadway performance. If you haven't begun the Chronicles of Nick audio series, I so suggest that you begin now...

Cant wait for more!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes and I allready have to many of people. I have even gotten my kids listening to them now and all of their friends.

Have you listened to any of Holter Graham’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes I have and he is the best at what he does. No one can compare to Holter. So glad to have him back instead of Fred for Sherry's books.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

I know they are making movies out of these books and I hope they name them just the way the book is and dont leave out any of the important stuff like when they made the Twilight series.

Very good book.

This was a good book, made me laugh and cry at the same time. Best one of the series so far.
