Editorial Reviews

Characters based on James Patterson's international bestsellers When the Wind Blows and The Lake House are re-invented in Maximum Ride and are launched on the ultimate action-packed adventure full of humor and suspense.

Fourteen-year-old Maximum Ride, better known as Max, knows what it's like to soar above the world. She and all the members of the "Flock"--Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gasman and Angel--are just like ordinary kids--only they have wings and can fly. It may seem like a dream come true to some, but their lives can morph into a living nightmare at any time--like when Angel, the youngest member of the "Flock," is kidnapped and taken back to the "School" where she and the others were genetically engineered by sinister scientists. Her friends brave a journey to Death Valley, CA, to save Angel, but soon enough, they find themselves in yet another nightmare--this one involving fighting off the half-human, half-wolf "Erasers" in New York City. Whether in the treetops of Central Park or in the bowels of the Manhattan subway system, Max and her adopted family take the ride of their lives. Along the way Max discovers from her old friend and father-figure Jeb--now her betrayed and greatest enemy--that her purpose is save the world--but can she?

Summary: Maximum entertainment
Comment: This is a great book for both adults, teens, and pre-teens. (Age 10+)

Original story unlike one I have read before. This is fiction, though, so you must keep an open mind when reading this book and the entire series. (For example, look at the cover and you will see that the girl has wings and is flying.)

I had heard of this series since I have read other books by James Patterson. However, a friend that is a teacher highly recommended the series - her middle school class was reading, but she said I would also enjoy.

The whole series is good, but the first book remains my favorite.

Summary: Awesome for all ages!!!!
Comment: Me (33-yrs-old), my 13-year old daughter, and my 66-yr-old father all loved this series and anxiously followed it until the end. It was the first time I had read James Patterson, and I am totally a fan now. This particular series was quick-to-read and kept you entranced beginning to end. Definitely recommend reading this series!

Summary: Fast Paced and Highly Entertaining
Comment: The book is about very special children struggling to find out who their parents are and how they came to be subjected to the cruel and dehumanizing "school." The characters are memorable and courageous in their continual flight from the relentless "erasers."
