In this book, Nick's sarcasm and smart-ass retorts didn't annoy me and weren't as jumpy, but rather had the desired effect of making me laugh. I started warming up to Nick and found it easier to grasp the story. The secondary characters are still so freaking amazing. What I love about this story is that I didn't really know who the bad and good guys were. I was always on edge that any character could turn their backs from the light.

It was easier to understand the many mythological and fantasy creatures and this new information wasn't confusing or info-dumped. What I feel took away my enjoyment in Infinity was the zombie-aspect, but Invincible has more of a mystery and magical aspect which made for a fast-paced, action pact and enjoying read.

The second book of the Chronicles of Nick was much more enjoyable than the first and even although it didn't feel like a five-star read, the subtle cliffhanger (if that makes any sense) at the end makes me really excited for book three.
