I love happy endings! I knew Infinity would end on a happy note, but that didn't make it any less fun or interesting to read. This time the story picks up 10 months after the finale of Evanescent. Nerissette is once again rebuilding after a terrible battle, but this time Allie isn't so sweet or patient about the consequences. She is out for revenge and she's bloodthirsty! Unfortunately, the rebuilding and the peace treaties are for naught, because her evil aunt, Empress Bavasama, attacks with all of the force that she has. Dragon fire and dryads with bows and arrows aren't going to be enough this time.

I have just adored this series! I don't think Infinity was the strongest of the series, but I still enjoyed it very much. Allie has shown a lot of growth over these three books. She's no longer that shy, unsure of herself, pushover that she was when she first got pulled into Nerissette. She does go through a rough patch at the beginning of the finale where she's nearly blinded by hatred, but luckily she has friends to remind her that that isn't who she is. She doesn't need to stoop her aunt's level in order to win. It's a cheesy sentiment, but it holds true for Allie. I just wish there had been more romance! Allie and Winston are adorable, and he's her voice of reason, but they barely get any page time together! Although I suppose since they spend most of the book in battle, that wouldn't be possible...

Now for the reason that Infinity wasn't my favorite of the trilogy. The plot is a bit repetitive, and is generally the same as the previous books but a bit darker. Characters who are gone, just won't stay gone, since no one wants to do the more permanent solution: death! Allie falls for a trap again, even though she's told it's probably a trap. People lie to her face and her instincts say not to trust them but for the sake of conflict, she does. She's just too willing to see the good in people that doesn't exist. I still enjoyed it, since there's plenty of tension and action, but I would have liked some more variation.

As it is though, Infinity was a great conclusion to a really fun series. Magical magic is magical and makes me smile, so I definitely would have been happy with more than the three short books that we're given. The ending is very happy since good trumps evil, but I would have liked to have seen a bit more of what happened after evil was defeated. There were a few plot threads that were carried throughout all three books that, while not dropped, didn't feel totally complete to me. I think an epilogue could have taken care of that.
