Quinton, a genius like his father and grandfather before him, believes that the world has been out of synch timewise ever since the experiment that created the galvanized. Her brother Quinton, his ex-girlfriend Gloria, and two-headed Neds are also included in the escape and effort to avoid capture. Traveling with her are Abraham, one of the galvanized and someone to whom she is very attracted. Tilly makes a deal with one of the Houses to rescue her brother and then ends up on the run after the murder of one of the galvanized and one of the heads of the Houses. Infinity Bell is a continuation of the story begun in House Immortal, with Matilda as a “stitch” – a creature made of various parts stitched together with an invention called “life thread.” In the first book, Tilly was removed from her farm to the City where the 11 Houses rule through twelve other “galvanized” beings, who are also stitches. But time itself is her enemy, and every second brings her one step closer to disaster….

Because this time, it will destroy her and everything she holds dear.Ĭaught in a cat-and-mouse game of lies, betrayal, and unseen foes, Matilda must fight to save the world from utter destruction. On the run, she must find a way to stop the repeat of the ancient time experiment that gifted her and the other galvanized with immortality. Matilda’s fight to protect the people she loves triggered a chaotic war between the Houses and shattered the world’s peace. And normal people don’t know that they’re going to die in a few days. Normal people’s bodies don’t hold the secret to immortality-something the powerful Houses will kill to possess. Normal people aren’t stitched together, inhumanly strong, and ageless, as she and the other galvanized are. But now, the treaty between them has been broken, and no one-not even the immortal galvanized-is safe…. Return to national bestselling author Devon Monk’s heartpounding House Immortal series, where eleven powerful Houses control the world and all its resources.
