Description
In this gripping sequel to the New York Times bestselling Infinity Son, Adam Silvera brings a diverse cast of heroes and villains to life in an alternate New York where some people are born with powers, while others steal them from the blood of endangered magical creatures . . . For fans of Cassandra Clare, Leigh Bardugo and Sarah J Maas.
Now including a limited edition prequel short story starring Ness!
Emil and Brighton defied the odds. They beat the Blood Casters and escaped with their lives – or so they thought. When Brighton drank the Reaper's Blood, he believed it would make him invincible, but instead the potion is killing him.
In Emil's race to find an antidote that will not only save his brother but also rid him of his own unwanted phoenix powers, he will have to dig deep into the very past lives he's trying to outrun. Though he needs the help of the Spell Walkers now more than ever, their ranks are fracturing, with Maribelle'sthirst for revenge sending her down a dangerous path.
Meanwhile, Ness is being abused by Senator Iron for political gain, his rare shifting ability making him a dangerous weapon. As much as Ness longs to send Emil a signal, he knows the best way to keep Emil safe from his corrupt father is to keep him at a distance.
The battle for peace is playing out like an intricate game of chess, and as the pieces on the board move into place, Emil starts to realise that he may have been competing against the wrong enemy all along . . .

Jacinta D, Reviewer
I loved reading Infinity Reaper by Adam Silvera. This was an excellent sequel to Infinity Son and really launched the trilogy forwards, leaping off from right in the middle of the action where Infinity Son left us. Absolutely brilliant action read for what is likely to be a bingeworthy series when all books have been published.
I'm so glad that this series will be a trilogy as Adam originally envisioned. I just can't imagine having this book fit even more into it. There was so much developed and so much action that the balance would definitely have been disrupted if this was the conclusion to the story. As a second book, it is exquisite.
The character arcs were excellent and I love the way they unfolded. Nothing felt unnatural, forced or rushed. They all just felt like real people dealing with their circumstances and changing as they moved through the world for both the good and the bad. It was an honest portrayal of the characters and felt true to the world Adam has created. He is a brilliant contemporary writer and I love the way he captures the emotional truths of our world even in fantastical stories.
I also loved the changing relationships. These were a result of the changing characters so I won't jump into them and share any spoilers, but again they felt honest, fresh and real.
If you're after an awesome light fantasy with tension, racy plot and ever increasing stakes then this is the series for you. This book was just everything I would want or expect from a sequel.
