Infamous

Chronicles of Nick #3 / 8
by Sherrilyn Kenyon
Infamous (Chronicles of Nick #3) by Sherrilyn Kenyon
Unrated

The world has fallen in love with Nick Gautier and the Dark-Hunters. Now Nick’s saga continues in the next eagerly anticipated volume...

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 such a difficulty? 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.

Sherrilyn Kenyon

Sherrilyn Kenyon

Sherrilyn Kenyon is a name that resonates deeply within the realm of paranormal romance and urban fantasy. Known for her vivid world-building and complex characters, Kenyon has captivated millions with her Dark-Hunter series, a collection that blends mythology, romance, and action in a way that keeps readers hooked page after page. Her books are filled with tortured heroes, strong heroines, and stories that blur the lines between the supernatural and the human experience, creating a world both dark and mesmerizing.

Born in the southern United States, Sherrilyn’s love of stories and mythology began early. Growing up surrounded by rich folklore, her imagination was nourished with tales of gods, demons, and the eternal struggle between good and evil. This childhood foundation inspired a career filled with narratives that are not only fantastical but also steeped in deep emotional journeys, tackling themes of redemption, love, and the often painful nature of the human heart.

What sets Kenyon apart in the world of paranormal fiction is her ability to make readers feel deeply connected to her characters. Her heroes and heroines, often facing extraordinary challenges, are also profoundly relatable, each one struggling with their own inner demons, fears, and desires. This emotional depth, paired with action-packed plots and steamy romance, has earned her a devoted fanbase that spans the globe.

Kenyon’s career skyrocketed with the success of her Dark-Hunter series, a collection that has grown to include dozens of books, graphic novels, and spin-offs. These stories explore a world where ancient gods walk among us, and the line between good and evil is constantly shifting. Her ability to seamlessly blend mythological references with contemporary settings has garnered widespread acclaim, establishing her as a leading voice in the paranormal romance genre.

Beyond her Dark-Hunter world, Kenyon has also explored other universes in her Chronicles of Nick and The League series, where she continues to develop intricate worlds and complex characters. But what makes her work truly stand out is the emotional resonance that underpins it all. Whether it’s the love between her protagonists or their journeys of personal growth, there’s a palpable heart to her writing that readers can’t help but connect with.

In addition to her literary success, Sherrilyn has received numerous accolades and recognitions, with several of her books hitting best-seller lists and achieving critical acclaim. Yet despite the fame, she remains grounded in her mission to tell stories that offer an escape while simultaneously touching on the struggles and triumphs of the human spirit.

Known for her strong, relatable characters and her refusal to shy away from the darker aspects of life and love, Sherrilyn Kenyon continues to build worlds that fans eagerly return to time and again. As she once said, “The best stories are the ones that speak to your heart,” and through her ever-expanding universe, she has certainly proven that her storytelling does just that.

Sherrilyn Kenyon also writes under the pseudonym of Kinley MacGregor.

Chronicles of Nick

Please note that the Chronicles of Nick is a Young Adult spin-off series from the Dark-Hunter novels. If you'd like to read the ones with more adult content, they are listed under the Dark-Hunter-series.

Quote from Author's homepage:

"Q: Do the books have to be read in order?
A: Absolutely not. As with all my series, they have recurring characters and do refer to events in past books, but each one is written with new readers in mind. So if you pick up in the middle of the series or skip around, you won't miss anything.

Q: Is this the same Nick that you have in the Dark-Hunter novels?
A: Yes and no. This series starts with Nick at age 14 and on the day he meets Kyrian of Thrace and gets sucked into the world of the Dark-Hunters.

It's an alternate view of the Dark-Hunter world that was written in response to all the fans who wanted to have Dark-Hunter books the whole family could love and from younger readers whose parents wouldn't let them read the more adult novels.

It has the same humor, sarcasm and adventure as the adult series, but in this one you get to see Tabitha, Amanda, Wren, Nick and other favorites as teenagers and young adults. Even Simi will be out in full demon glory as they protect New Orleans from the Daimons and other evils.

Q: How many books will there be?
A: 10 are planned."
