Review: Infinity Son

Infinity Son Infinity Son by Adam Silvera
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Growing up, twins Emil and Brighton idolized the Spell Walkers, a group of crime-fighting magical vigilantes, and hoped to manifest their own powers someday. At 18, Brighton still dreams of the fame and glory powers would bring, but Emil would be happier living a normal life. The Spell Walkers’ popularity has waned, and some in the government want to lock them up along with the Blood Casters, a group of power-hungry alchemists who steal magical blood to create powers in themselves. When the brothers find themselves caught in a battle between the two magical groups, it’s Emil who discovers he has phoenix fire. When a video of Emil’s fight goes viral, the brothers must go into hiding, both from the Blood Casters and the government enforcers.
This fast-paced fantasy combines a fun twist on the Chosen One trope with all the things I love in a Silvera novel: complicated relationships, a diverse cast of compelling characters, and unexpected plot twists. This is the first book in a trilogy, and I’m very excited to see where Emil and Brighton’s story takes them.
