Rightnow, there are nine merging novels and the overarching plot bringing them together is slowly coalescing. The novels currently coming together are The Others, Flux, Tribe, NPC, Exo-Hunter, Infinite, Torment, Infinite2, The Dark, and Mind Bullet. This is STAGE ONE, and was completed in November, 2021.
STAGE TWO brings together two groups of characters from several novels for two separate crossover stories. The first group merges characters from The Others, Flux, and Exo-Hunter, for THE ORDER (available now), a sci-fi thrill ride on Earth and beyond. The second group pulls characters from Tribe, The Dark, and Mind Bullet, taking this superhuman team into the underworld for a fantastical and horrific tale, titled KHAOS (October 2022).
And all of this sets up STAGE THREE. A single novel, bringing together the casts from all nine novels, for a massive spectacle titled: SINGULARITY (December 2022). The story will follow a vast cast, facing threats that have been building behind the scenes for the past several years, bridging science-fiction, mythology, and horror. Along the way, there will be plenty of action, a lot of laughs, a few tears, and a mind-blowing finale that has been five years in the making.
Below are links to buy every Infinite Timeline book currently available, in the suggested reading order. Each of them is available in audio, print, e-book, and Kindle Unlimited editions. Torment and The Order were just recently released. Khaos arrives in October 2022, and Singularity in December 2022.
I laughed out loud when I first heard THE DARK. I truely love reading in order of these series. I just finished MIND BULLET and had the same effect of LOLing, (if that is a phrase). J Robinson, kudos to you. I took a screen shot of your series so I can read them in order. I also gave Infinate a shot and then read Infinite 2 thinking it was next, but after seeing the order on here, looks like I missed a few. Keep up the great work!
But to answer your question better, NH:Atlantis will give you a good understanding of Milos and his motivations, and what his odd bell can do. It should help, but may be completely unnecessary. I just recommend it.
man i started with Infinite, soo good, read the Others, hilarious im from South Central Idaho, now i know where they came from.. checkrd out Exo Hunter.. soo good again..
after that i got the thing from audio books announcing Infinite 2. looked at your website. i then made a profound discovery.
it seemd like there was a character from another book, the guy from the Others at the end, sorry i forgot his name..
Since then im almost done with all but the black covers.. The Order is next but now its The Dark, after MIND BULLET, [ one must sound like RC B]
long story short, thanks for the awsome ride!
I love this idea! I have listened to Infinite 1 & 2 and both were great. I just noticed all of his books as the Infinite timeline on Audible and was confused and looked up this site. I do believe I have myself a new set of books to listen to now!
Love all your books and especially the concept of Infinite Timeline. There are obviously looser connections to the Nemesis series and Second World. Do you have a list what other book/series we can see contributing characters from?
I came here looking for the same thing. I have a pretty bad memory but I am having trouble linking things together (Up to NPC) I recognize the character names in the epilogues but then have to google for 20 minutes to refresh who they are and try and remember where everything linked in. I just finished Exo-Hunter (Accidentally got Exo-Hunter and NPC mixed up in my library so those two are out of order)
Hi,
Just finishing Infinite. Very thought provoking and well written.
For some reason the libraries around the Chicagoland area, (I live in the south suburbs) do not have inventory of your Infinite series.
So, I have holds on Project Nemesis books and hope to start reading them soon.
I realize that Dark (which was great) had some background but it was fast and towards the end. They are then mentioned arbitrarily through some of the other books but maybe I missed something in another series. I enjoy the play on Abrahamic and Greek/Roman religions vs Spirituality. With the Lux and Tenebris apparently representing angels and demons, it just seems skimmed over as opposed to the Titans and Linda ?
I have to say as a life long fan of anthology in all its forms, this series is truly inspiring in its breadth of genres. But as I continued to absorb each new novel, what impressed me most was the scope of human nature and experience that is covered over the entire series (love,loss,orphanage, ptsd, existential meaning, religion, racism etc)Instead of listing all the varieties of human experiences you touch upon, I just want to ask you a question about them.
Born in Germany, Kissinger emigrated to the United States in 1938 as a Jewish refugee fleeing Nazi persecution. He served in the U.S. Army during World War II. After the war, he attended Harvard University, where he excelled academically. He later became a professor of government at the university and earned an international reputation as an expert on nuclear weapons and foreign policy. He acted as a consultant to government agencies, think tanks, and the presidential campaigns of Nelson Rockefeller and Nixon before being appointed as national security advisor and later secretary of state by President Nixon.
An advocate of a pragmatic approach to geopolitics known as Realpolitik, Kissinger pioneered the policy of dtente with the Soviet Union, orchestrated an opening of relations with China, engaged in "shuttle diplomacy" in the Middle East to end the Yom Kippur War, and negotiated the Paris Peace Accords, which ended American involvement in the Vietnam War. For his role in negotiating the accords, he was awarded the 1973 Nobel Peace Prize to controversy.[5] Kissinger is also associated with controversial U.S. policies including its bombing of Cambodia, involvement in the 1973 Chilean coup d'tat, support for Argentina's military junta in its Dirty War, support for Indonesia in its invasion of East Timor, and support for Pakistan during the Bangladesh Liberation War and Bangladesh genocide.[6] Widely considered by scholars to have been an effective secretary of state,[7] Kissinger was also accused by critics of war crimes for the civilian death toll of the policies he pursued and for his role in facilitating U.S. support for authoritarian regimes.[8][9]
After leaving government, Kissinger founded Kissinger Associates, an international geopolitical consulting firm which he ran from 1982 until his death. He authored over a dozen books on diplomatic history and international relations. His advice was sought by American presidents of both political parties.[10][11]
Kissinger was born Heinz Alfred Kissinger[b] on May 27, 1923, in Frth, Bavaria, Germany. He was the son of homemaker Paula (ne Stern), from Leutershausen, and Louis Kissinger, a schoolteacher. He had a younger brother, Walter, who was a businessman. Kissinger's family was German-Jewish.[12] His great-great-grandfather Meyer Lb adopted "Kissinger" as his surname in 1817, taking it from the Bavarian spa town of Bad Kissingen.[13] In his childhood, Kissinger enjoyed playing soccer. He played for the youth team of SpVgg Frth, one of the nation's best clubs at the time.[14]
In a 2022 BBC interview, Kissinger vividly recalled being nine years old in 1933 and learning of Adolf Hitler's election as Chancellor of Germany, which proved to be a profound turning point for the Kissinger family.[15] During Nazi rule, Kissinger and his friends were regularly harassed and beaten by Hitler Youth gangs.[16] Kissinger sometimes defied the segregation imposed by Nazi racial laws by sneaking into soccer stadiums to watch matches, often receiving beatings from security guards.[17][16] As a result of the Nazis' anti-Semitic laws, Kissinger was unable to gain admittance to the Gymnasium and his father was dismissed from his teaching job.[16][18]
On August 20, 1938, when Kissinger was 15 years old, he and his family fled Germany to avoid further Nazi persecution.[16] The family briefly stopped in London before arriving in New York City on September 5. Kissinger later downplayed the influence his experiences of Nazi persecution had had on his policies, writing that the "Germany of my youth had a great deal of order and very little justice; it was not the sort of place likely to inspire devotion to order in the abstract." Nevertheless, many scholars, including Kissinger's biographer Walter Isaacson, have argued that his experiences influenced the formation of his realist approach to foreign policy.[19]
Kissinger spent his high-school years in the German-Jewish community in Washington Heights, Manhattan. Although Kissinger assimilated quickly into American culture, he never lost his pronounced German accent, due to childhood shyness that made him hesitant to speak.[20][21] After his first year at George Washington High School, he completed school at night while working in a shaving brush factory during the day.[20]
Kissinger studied accounting at the City College of New York, excelling academically as a part-time student while continuing to work. His studies were interrupted in early 1943, when he was drafted into the U.S. Army.[22]
Kissinger underwent basic training at Camp Croft in Spartanburg, South Carolina. On June 19, 1943, while stationed in South Carolina, he became a naturalized U.S. citizen. The army sent him to study engineering at Lafayette College in Pennsylvania under the Army Specialized Training Program, but the program was canceled and Kissinger was reassigned to the 84th Infantry Division. There, he made the acquaintance of Fritz Kraemer, a fellow immigrant from Germany who noted Kissinger's fluency in German and his intellect and arranged for him to be assigned to the division's military intelligence. Kissinger saw combat with the division and volunteered for hazardous intelligence duties during the Battle of the Bulge. On April 10, 1945, he participated in the liberation of the Hannover-Ahlem concentration camp, a subcamp of the Neuengamme concentration camp. At the time, Kissinger wrote in his journal, "I had never seen people degraded to the level that people were in Ahlem. They barely looked human. They were skeletons." After the initial shock, however, Kissinger was relatively silent about his wartime service.[23][24]
