In James Patterson's blockbuster series, 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 experimented on by a crew of wack jobs. Her friends brave a journey to blazing hot 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?

This book was an absolute page turner. It catches the readers attention write away. It has such an amazing plot.

This book is a GREAT BOOK!!!! Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gasman, and Angel are all experiments, they are kids that have wings that look like they belong to a bird, and they escaped the Erasers, evil wolf-like creatures, and are now running away from the Erasers who are continuing to find them, and they don't know how they are doing it!!! READ IT!!! I'm going to read the second one as soon as possible, School's Out Forever, I hope it will be as AMAZING as the first one!!!

It pulls you in and you can't stop reading it

Best book I have ever read in my whole entire life

One of the BEST series EVER!!! The conclusion at the end is amazing and unexpected. If you are bored and want a science/fantasy/fiction book that involves a teen w/ low self-estem, This series is the perfect choice! BOYS- warning- LOTS of romance. Not a normal book boys enjoy.

Such an amazing book! I loved it so much! If you're looking for a book to read, read the Maximum Ride series!

Sometimes, when we have a break, the Prof is Fang, Im Max, Luke is Gazzy, Flora is Nudge, Clive is Iggy, and Lina is Angel...we havent found anyone to be Dylan and we dont have a dog to be Total except K-9...its still fun though!
