Maximum Ride: Max

The book I read was maximum Raid volume 8. Max and the flocks is running from a certain organization, and  they need a place to stay but some other people was looking for them to save the world and safe everyone for a certain fate.

        

The beginning Max And the flocks was at around the north for an experiment,on how the got their wings. Then they went to look around the place  to know around the place. When they were coming back one of the worker from the place got cut by a tiger sea. Max and fang flew above to grab his hand to pull him up from the water and the tiger sea. When they went back to the facility. They started the experiment, but someone was missing Angel. Angel and Akila was playing outside but the went too far from the facility and when missing. Max called the whole flocks to go look for Angel.

They went to look for Angel. They look everywhere and find her in a hole with Akila trying to climb out of the hole. But Angel was stuck, her leg was under a snow rock. Then max and fang again told her to gave her hand so they can be pull up. When they rescued Angel and the dog (Akila) they where going back, but they meet up with gozen who wanted to captured them.

Max and the flock was captured and forced to go LA,to be sold to other organizations who wanted to experiment on them. The people who captured them boss was a computer and had so many wire content to him. He was selling them. But it didn't go as planned. There was a storm and it when smacking in the glass that they said was unbelievable. After it brook, Max and the flocks flew up. Gozen and his boss got cut in the storm, then Gozen ask Max to rescue his boss but she said no. The he flocks when back. After that Max was ask to report a global warming news that will destroy the world as they know it and everyone will die. But they come up with a plan to stop it. But another organization created another Max to destroy the real Max.

Max and the flock been running. Even though they find a place to stay it wasn't too save for them to just walk around, because people are still people running after them to experiment on them for the wing they have on their back. If that was to be your experience what will you have done.

Maximum Ride

The book I'm reading is called "MAXIMUM RIDE" by James Patterson. He also wrote WITCH AND WIZARD, MIDDLE SCHOOL, TREASURE HUNT, and others. Maximum ride and Witch and wizard are similar because they both are about something unrealistic, like both of the stories are fiction. Both Maximum ride and Middle school talk about teenager and struggles. Maximum ride and Treasure hunt talk about finding something and also they are both teenagers. The theme is family always comes first and can help when help is needed.

This story is about six teenagers that are actually birds or bird-kids that are trying to escape or hide from these people called "White coats" and the "Fly-boys" are trying to kill them. In the prologue of the book Max said "The six of us-me, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gasman, and Angel-were made on purpose, by the sickest most horrible 'scientists' you could possibly imagine"(Prologue p.1). The main point the "White coats" wants them is to do experiment on them after that if they see that their useful they keep them or if not they kill them. The "Fly-boys" just basically want to kill them.

I recommend this book to people that like sci-fi fantasy or if they like action-pack adventure. If you don't sci-fi or action this isn't the book for you. For me the book is okay, it's not that boring I like it. People say it's the #1 New York Time seller, if I would rate this book 1 out 5, I'll rate it a 4. It's a interesting book with a lot of adventures and a lot of suspense. LONDON TIME says " BOOK OF THE WEEK... Pace, action, mystery, and cool". Well it's a really good book, I'll say you can read when you feel like it. I'll tell you that this book it's really good if you really into Maximum ride this book you must read.

Maximum Ride

The book I read was Maximum Ride by James Patterson. This is the first and only novel I have read by the author. I'm not sure how it different from other books he was write. The story about Six unforgettable kids with no families, no homes are running for their lives. Max Ride(Leadership) and her best friends have the ability to fly. And that's just the beginning of their amazing powers. But they don't know where they come from, who's hunting them, why they are different from all other humans and if they're meant to save mankind or destroy it. This book mean family is a huge theme also genetic mutation, what it mean to be a human problem you can't control. Leadership, what is right and what is easy.

In this book, Maximum Ride is a young adult science fiction fantasy novel series written by James Patterson. The lives of six kids Max (the leader), Fang, Iggy, Nudge, the Gasman, and Angel (the youngest member) who were created in a lab known as the School. In addition to their mixed DNA, the Flock also has something many only dream of having wings that they can actually fly with. This is an internal conflict.  In this story has conflict Character Vs Society. For example, Rescue Angel from malicious mutants. Invade a secret skill to track down the flock's missing parents. Search for foods and get revenge on an evil traitor, and save the world, If there's time. At a secret lab called The School, scientists perform genetic tests on children. Four years ago, one of the scientists (Jeb) helped six mutant kids escape to a house in the mountains. He lived with them there for two years as a loving protector and father figure. Then he disappear and they believe he'd been killed. This point make the reader wonder if he got killed or alive . This book have many actions and violence.

Maximum Ride such as a great book ever that I never ever read kind of this book before and very interesting that make me want to read and nowhere can't stop me from reading this book. This book can read any age such as a kids, teenager, and adults. I recommend you to read this book because this book full of action and you’ll never want to put it down. There is some violence and a lot of experiences. I think it's great for anyone who loves action, humor, and fast paced dialogue.
